Spelling

Do we use English or American spelling ---Snowded ^TALK

"Preferred spelling: It is just as important to have consistent spelling in the UI and codebase as it is to have consistent UI. By long standing history, 'American English' is the preferred spelling for English language messages, comments, and documentation."

Personal opinion, search engines and automated language translators should be smart enough that the distinction shouldn't be a concern. In terms of consistency, perhaps follow the MediaWiki convention? JohnGrant (talk) 07:56, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia allows both and most European articles are in British English but interested in other views ---Snowded ^TALK 09:17, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
