I think "Add New Feature..." is OK as whet you really do is adding a new
feature (with empty attribute values)
"View/Edit Feature Geometry..." appears to me to be more precise than
just "View/Edit Feature", but WKT is not necessary (IMHO)

A bit long, "Select Features Intersecting Fence" should be OK, as a
fence is a polygon, and included features are also intersecting the polygon.
If you want me to make these changes in the english language files, I
can do it, because I'm on the point to change all the language property
files after some clean-up (adding missing keys, removing unused keys,
identifying untranslated keys...)
