[edit] Spelling

"popularised" or "popularized"? Which english spelling is preferred on Wiki, the Canadian or American spelling. I'd reason that since this is a Canadian focused entry, it makes sense to use the Canadian spelling of the word. --Computer_Saskboy 19:04, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)

Wikipedia doesn't mandate the use of either regular or U.S. English, but I certainly see no reason for an article about a Canadian subject to use U.S. spellings. David Arthur 20:47, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)

Standardly it is whichever is there gets to be there, though for topics that are about an area it is normally their spelling. As far as I see.

Yes, the normal policy is basically If the article is relevent to one specific country, use their english. If not, retain whatever english it is currently using. But always be consistant and use a single version. An article about a Canadian TV show should use Canadian English.WilyD 15:57, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Favourite Moments...?

That part of the article should be cut. It's very opinionated and seems out of context.

On the other side, there should be some mention of Darren Jones' brief run on the show (when it was still called Monday Report). I know we all hated him, but he's still part of the show's history, like it or not. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 76.64.76.107 (talk) 16:01, 3 February 2007 (UTC).
