RFD discussion: January–May 2019
I can also find yllw, yel, yelow and yell as abbreviations, my vote is that all of them are ad hoc. - TheDaveRoss  17:02, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

 * Move to RFV and keep if attested, IMO. This is a bit of a grey area; we almost certainly don't want every name that starts with M and has been reduced to an initial to be listed at "M.", and having at "y." is at least a little murky (probably a large number of non-name words that start with any given letter can be abbreviated to their first letter)...but this seems like the sort of abbreviation we've tended to include. - -sche (discuss) 09:29, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I think there is no question that this can be fairly readily attested. I think the question is more a matter of policy -- whether we want to include these somewhat ad-hoc-seeming abbreviations, and where to draw the line. The extent of such abbreviations in attestable use is pretty enormous, I think. In this case I vote weak keep. Mihia (talk) 15:17, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Send to RFV. If I were a non-native speaker of English, chances are I'd want to be able to look this sort of thing up. There are a finite number of abbreviations out there, and no reason why we can't include them. Andrew Sheedy (talk) 04:02, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
