Template talk:Yea

Why couldn't we keep the Template name as "Ya"?

 * Slate wanted the character count to remain consistent for yes / no / not applicable. Given that N/A cannot get smaller effectively, the character count for Ya and Na was raised to be three for Yea and Nay. Not my ideal solution, but it was the one decided upon. Trig - 20:16, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Wouldn't 'Yay' be a better name than 'Yea'? Since it rhymes with 'Nay'... and Nay is usually paired with Yay. (it's also 3 letters long). 16:08, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Yea is the common, acceptable way to spell it. I'm not sure of the reason for this, but it's just how it's done. Plus, yay is how you say "excited". -Xando (talk) 16:52, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I ran by with "yes" and "no" and it was rejected. Yea and Nay look visually different and have the same character count, so it works. Trig - 17:18, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Okay then. 12:52, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Yay is usually also paired with Nay as like a 'silly way to say yes'; though it was also used in ancient times (basically). Plus, if we're talking about similar meanings, 'yea' also has similar meanings. 12:56, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
