Revision as of 08:27, 26 October 2010

Most of the "spelling errors" you fix are not spelling errors at all. "Travelled", "travelling", "combatting", etc. are every bit as acceptable as (and more commonly used than) "traveled", "traveling", "combating", etc. Also, things in captions tend to take a more familiar tone with the reader, so "dontcha" and "erm" are fine as is and do not require fixing. --Detour 13:13, 13 October 2010 (EDT)

Again, please learn the difference between "spelling errors" and "alternate yet perfectly acceptable spelling of words". It's every bit as acceptable to use s as it is to use z in words that end in "ised/ized". --Detour 03:13, 14 October 2010 (EDT)
And to with the "ised/ized" thing, we have users that use BOTH American English and British English. So "colour", "neighbour", "parlour" and other such words are also acceptable. --Lonegamer78 04:27, 14 October 2010 (EDT)
Please stop "fixing spelling errors", none of what you "fix" are spelling errors to begin with. --Detour 04:27, 26 October 2010 (EDT)
