Not clear why that instance is green. I think I've seen arrive photos of green stop signs too. The point of my post wasn't too be flippant though: the GP was talking about stop signs being universally red, and that being basis for red labels/buttons. It only takes one example to disprove universality, I showed multiple.
To point of labeling and actions though:
1) I'm proponent of button labels being verbs ("Delete" vs "Yes")
2) Undo-able where possible
- thaumasiotes 13y agoActually, the post you responded to specifically argued that the universality (= every country, not necessarily every sign) of red stop signs makes red a good color for warning dialogs. That argument doesn't require that all stop signs be red everywhere, it requires that red stop signs be typical everywhere, which they are. The only non-red stop signs described by wikipedia are several decades old. As to the topic, I agree that the "yes" doesn't belong on the buttons, and have no particular opinion on undo vs no-undo.
