Merge mention made a few days ago at Talk:Film developing by User:Linuxlad. --Christopherlin 07:11, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

  • I would say no because it could get out of hand, film developing should be reduced to the mechanics of the process and all the chemical workings discussed under photographic developer. Alf photoman 22:33, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Please keep the spelling of "color/colour" consistent per WP:ENGVAR. It is the intent of WP:ENGVAR that both spellings not be used in the same article without a specific reason. --VMS Mosaic 08:24, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

WP:ENGVAR states that unless a subject is strongly linked to a particular reason (not the case here), the usage of the first major contributor should be followed. In this case, that is the Commonwealth English used by User:Velela when he/she expanded the article beyond a stub more than 2 years ago [1]. --Stemonitis 09:23, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
WP:ENGVAR states that to be the case only if "all else fails". It was clear the current predominant usage was "color" per the higher priority guidelines, but since there is an argument, the "all else fails" now apparently applies. If User:Velela things the issue is so vital, why did he not correct the entire article instead of just rashly reverting my change? --VMS Mosaic 17:53, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
