[Bug 1373461] [NEW] Multiple delete confirmation uses "Yes/No" rather than verbs

 

Public bug reported:

Use of "Yes/No" for confirmation (particularly on destructive actions, such as deleting) is generally considered inadvisable:
http://ux.stackexchange.com/questions/9946/should-i-use-yes-no-or-ok-cancel-on-my-message-box

Recommend switching language to use the verbs "Confirm/Cancel" (as seen
when uninstalling applications).

** Affects: address-book-app (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
