PLEASE NOTE that the question of whether to spell the subject of this article as color or colour is covered by the Manual of Style and American and British English spelling differences. This talk page is for discussing the subject matter of the article. Any comments about the spelling of color/colour may be regarded as off-topic and removed. Specifically: Wikipedia:Manual of Style#National varieties of English: “ Stay with established spelling -- If an article has been in a given dialect for a long time, and there is no clear reason to change it, leave it alone. Editors should not change the spelling used in an article wholesale from one variant to another, unless there is a compelling reason to do so (which will rarely be the case). Other editors are justified in reverting such changes. Fixing inconsistencies in the spelling is always appreciated. ”

On which page should editors discuss amending the spelling? Cloveoil 09:57, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

I am tempted to reply "None at all" given the amount of time that has been spent on this side issue, but since some users may want to restart the debate without reading the comments in the archive, the best place would be the talk page of the Wikipedia: Manual of Style.--Ianmacm 11:42, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
