Grammar change

This is my first time editing in Wikipedia and I'm a bit nervous about it. Nevertheless, the last sentence in the 3rd paragraph from the top of the article, in my opinion should read:

These parts of the script are usually edited down severely for the purposes of the read-through to keep up the pace of the reading.

instead of it reading:

These parts of the script are usually edited down severely for the purposes of the read-through to keep the pace of the reading up.

Shouldn't this be renamed to table read?

My understanding is that read-through is a theatre term and "table read" (no hyphen) is the preferred term in the film and television industries. Most people will see only a handful of theater productions in their lives. But most people will see many films and television shows, and when they read the news coverage of how those productions are made, the term they most commonly see is "table read." Any objections to moving this article to the more commonly used title? Coolcaesar (talk) 20:31, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
