Inaccuracy in lede
editThe word is generally agreed to have originally meant "goddamn", so I think that that meaning should be given precedent over the backronyms listed. Additionally, the pronunciation of /ɡjæ:t/ is also sometimes used. Jim Biden (talk) 07:08, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
Wiktionary has stronger etymology for the butt-woman sense

Advert-like posts?
editThis and the related articles read like an advert for a certain person. Regarding "taxing", my surrounding used the term in the same meaning in the nineties and I have no doubt that it was used worldwide, in many languages and much before that time. ondra (talk) 19:38, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
Should this article be titled "Gyat" or "Gyatt"? Which spelling is more common?

Note that I am not listing this as a move discussion yet, because I am not yet firmly in a specific stance of one or another. I should say though that while I have seen "Gyatt" more than "Gyat" on social media, the provided sources seem to be split on which is more common. In the current article Gyatt, its a disambiguation between a ship, this article, and an unsourced alt spelling of guyot, which is mentioned nowhere on the article in question. That last entry does make me wonder if the disambiguation page is redundant. The two potential outcomes I see from this is either the status quo or this article being relocated to "Gyatt", "Gyat" redirecting to that, the guyot linking removed, and a note saying "For the ship, see USS Gyatt".

- Gyatt strikes me as more common. Gyattt should be removed from lede. Biohistorian15 (talk) 11:14, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

Gyat → Gyatt – "Gyatt" is potentially the more common spelling, at least in my experience online (The provided sources seem split). The Kai Cenat quote in the article describing the word’s expanded popularity from his usage spells it as Gyatt. The disambiguation page currently present at "Gyatt" contains an alternate spelling for guyot that is unsourced and mentioned nowhere on the target article. "Gyat" could merge to "Gyatt", guyot should be removed, and the USS Gyatt linking should be a note at the top. DrewieStewie (talk) 02:24, 12 September 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. Safari ScribeEdits!

- Neutral: They're pretty equal according to Google Trends. Sources are also fairly split. I don't think either spelling is particularly more common so there's not really a convincing reason to move. Regardless, Gyatt should redirect here with a {{redirect}} hatnote as Gyat is clearly the primary topic. C F A 💬 21:38, 13 September 2024 (UTC)
- Another voice for Gyatt Biohistorian15 has stated in the above section that Gyatt is more common in his view. DrewieStewie (talk) 04:02, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

- Relisting comment: Some statistics to shows that Gyat is a common name would be more helpful. Best, Reading of Beans 05:28, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
- Support Gyatt is the more commonly used term 2603:3005:2B09:2300:986B:8A38:A3D5:12D6 (talk) 12:34, 24 September 2024 (UTC)

- Comment: From the Google Trends page mentioned above, it's interesting to me that "gyatt" is more popular in the US, Canada, Ireland, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. While "gyat" has an extraordinarily high percentage in India, which I imagine is for some other reason there. Adumbrativus (talk) 08:39, 27 September 2024 (UTC)

- The article "Gyatt" is a disambiguation page, so split the page first, then move the contents of this article to Gyatt. 92.236.30.187 (talk) 16:09, 28 September 2024 (UTC)
- Support. Double t is the more common form. A hatnote should suffice. Frost 10:15, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
- Support, as it can be seen from social media, "gyatt" is more popular
