[edit] Colour vs Color

Can anyone tell me what the big difference is? I really don't think it matters. I've lived my entire life in America and know people who spell it both ways. I personally think that "colour" just looks funny. But either way, let's just agree on one spelling and stick with it. --Lekogm 22:32, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

I reverted the original edit by an IP for the general reason that American is not automatically "correct". After that, I realised that the article title is Color, and convention is to keep whatever the article was created with (the original article was entirely inconsistent). So I've reset it as Color for the majority of the article, and Colour where the article specifically references UK practice. This is the correct way to do it. If I've missed any general references, feel free to correct, but in this case, it is correct to use both spellings, depending on context. Bryson430 23:14, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

That's all good. I'm just trying tos tay in general how should we write "color." Upon reading this discussion this morning, I feel that I should just move it to the project talk page and we can figure out some standard there. --Lekogm 13:44, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Weeeeelll... are there any standards on what the "international" version is (e.g. what's used by the UN, etc?). I seem to remember having an "International English" copy of Encarta a few years back that was basically British English in all but name, though there were probably some differences (e.g. Sulfur instead of Sulphur, fetus instead of foetus & the like) that I didn't spot/commit to memory. Also I realise microsoft are probably not a go-to authority on this, but it is at least precedent. 82.46.180.56 (talk) 00:17, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] ND filters

Gaa, ND filters reduce the intensity in terms of [radiant flux] (watts), NOT f-number. f-number, or relative aperture, is a measure of the emitted cone angle. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 212.150.167.46 (talk) 11:00, 6 May 2007 (UTC).

[edit] huh?? (trivia section / hazing)

how can it be the "only bottle they have left", if it's a gel sheet? unless i've missed something in that they're stored in bottles or whatever. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.46.180.56 (talk) 00:19, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
