I recommend adding a link to the YAML homepage

yaml.org/

Also according to that site homepage, it stands for "YAML Ain't Markup Language", which is what you have in your cover image.

While your definition at the end of "Yet Another Markup Language" was correct up to around 2001 yaml.org/spec/history/2001-12-10.html

It's worth mentioning both in one paragraph. Also I wouldn't call it "YML" except when describing as an extension - .yml.

Added the link to the home page (again). It was actually there already but i can't understand why it disappeared

I wouldn't bother about the acronyms. The purpose is to know how to use it and not figuring out what it stand for in my opinion.
