Petition: Change "Up vote/Down vote" to "Upvote/Downvote" or "Up-vote/Down-vote"

The "Up vote" and "Down vote" we have now is a great utility! The only problem, in an grammatical sense is "Up vote" and "Down vote" lack syntax in that the two words, when separated do not mean anything, yet a small fix would change all of this!

The internet has adopted the words Upvote and Downvote as actual words, while not accepted in Webster's Dictionary (yet), these do a better job at explaining what the feature is than "Up vote" or "Down vote" does.

If "Up vote" and "Down vote" were hyphenated to "Up-vote" or "Down-vote" then this would be a verb that would directly describe the action a user is taking when they use this feature.



While I do not have a preference to the use of neither the compound word nor the hyphenated word versions outlined above, both serve as a more proper syntax than the "Up vote" and "Down vote" labels we currently have.

This thread is to serve a petition in that respect, to change the current labels to either mentioned as better alternatives.

Thank you.
