Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.
In a recent edit, you changed one or more words from one international variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect other forms of English in Wikipedia articles.
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.
[edit] BBC
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.
