[edit] July 2006

On wikipedia, we use American spellings for American topics and Commonwealth spellings for British, Australian, and Indian topics. Please do not attempt to alter articles that have already been started in one style and switch it to another.--The ikiroid (talk·desk·Advise me) 22:03, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Please don't be upset, editors make mistakes all the time......consider creating an account, I'll be happy to help you get started and provide you with pointers about editing and whatnot. You also may want to check out Wikipedia:Manual of Style/(spelling) and Wikipedia:Manual of Style#National varieties of English. I'm sorry I came off as harsh before. Wikipedia needs dedicated contributors like yourself. There's nothing to an account, really, except for a username and a password, and it'll give you an identity in the community.......anyway, I'm moving your comment to my talkpage, I'm sorry about the confusing Advise me/talk thing. If you do make a decision, you can contact me on my talkpage. Cheers, The ikiroid (talk·desk·Advise me) 02:44, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed content from Jon. Please be careful not to remove content from Wikipedia without a valid reason, which you should specify in the edit summary or on the article's talk page. Thank you.

[edit] Spellings

Please stop changing the spelling of words on Fahrenheit 9/11. The subject is American, so policy is to use American spellings. AlistairMcMillan 01:21, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Advice: English dialects on Wikipedia: Wikipedia has millions of readers; some use American English, or British English, or International English, or any of numerous other local forms from Australia, Canada, Ireland etc. Because of this, Wikipedia has a policy of respecting articles written in whatever form of English the original author of the article used.

The guidelines are simple. For subjects exclusively related to Britain (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. If it is an international topic, use the same form of English the original author used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to the other, even if you don't normally use the version the article is written in. Respect other people's versions of English. They in turn should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Wikipedia:Manual of Style. If you have any queries about all this, just ask anyone on Wikipedia and they will help you. Enjoy your time on the internet's fastest growing encyclopædia/encyclopedia . Thank you.

Thank you for experimenting with the page Tire on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do.

Please do not change articles from American English to British English, or from British English to American English, where the article was originally written in the form of English native to that country. Wikipedia accepts articles in both forms of English. If an article is about either country it is supposed to be written in that country's English.

Also please leave the date format in the form native to that country (dd/mm/yy for British/Australian/Irish etc topics, mm/dd/yy for American topics). If the topic is international, please leave in the form the article was written in originally. Many users become offended if their native English is deleted from articles about their country, and replaced with someone else's form of English or form of dates. --Dfeuer 20:03, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ken Morrison

I didn't add the "Sir" to the Ken Morrison article, I removed several pieces of vandalism to it. Gwernol 22:52, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sir

Please stop removing "Sir" from people's articles. You seem to be confused; Michael Gambon and Ken Morrison are not "Sir" because of the CBE, they are "Sir" as they are knights bachelor. The CBE is complelty seperate from the Sir. --Berks105 13:04, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
