National varieties of English

Hello. In a recent edit to the page Wordle, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the first author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. 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 Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk.

More specific to your recent edits, please read MOS:RETAIN which states When an English variety's consistent usage has been established in an article, maintain it in the absence of consensus to the contrary. If you want to propose changing the variety and have evidence to support that change, Talk:Wordle is the right place to start. Thank you. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 23:36, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you revert again before achieving any consensus on the talk page (per MOS:RETAIN), you will be reported for edit warring and will likely be blocked. — Masem (t) 23:44, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Technically indistinguishable and with an overlap in articles, too. Good block. Yamla (talk) 12:23, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
