According to the Gnome HIG, yes/no dialogs should be avoided:
| Button Phrasing
|
| Write button labels as imperative verbs, for example Save, Print. This
| allows users to select an action with less hesitation. An active phrase
| also fits best with the button's role in initiating actions, as contrasted
| with a more passive phrase. For example Find and Log In are better buttons
| than than Yes and OK.
