  • Oppose radio button is more common. 132.205.93.33 01:39, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose 1,170,000 ghits for "radio button" [1], 919,000 for "option button" [2]  Anþony  talk  04:53, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose Radio button is surely more common. Option button is much less descriptive/specific to the topic of the article. -- AuburnPilottalk 07:33, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose I have a fair background in GUI design and I seldom hear the term "option button." MeekMark 13:00, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose It's definitely a "radio button", and I'd be surprised if all of Anþony's hits for "option button" referred to radio buttons anyway. FiggyBee 00:02, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

  • I'm not sure this is a wise move without some discussion. This button is commonly know as radio button so why change? Vegaswikian 01:18, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
