A button with a representation of “I did not enjoy this video, Mesdames et Messieurs at YouTube, please let others know they, too, may not enjoy it” in some kind of visual medium that is more concise than “I did not enjoy this video, Mesdames et Messieurs at YouTube, please let others know they, too, may not enjoy it” would be nice.
That would be impossible, since the only opinion people have is liking a thing, or being indifferent to a thing. Unliking, er...how you say, deliking a thing is not in the realm of possibility
