Spelling: American or British english? #413

Closed avivace closed 2 years ago

avivace commented 2 years ago

We mostly use american variants for now (e.g. behavior, color, ..), but we're not consistent

ISSOtm commented 2 years ago

I prefer British; I'm more used to typing American because it's more common online.

Sorry I don't get what you're voting for, should we go for British even if we're more used to AE?

ISSOtm commented 2 years ago

Yes, British.

avivace commented 2 years ago

Okay, I would suggest AE to make as small changes as possible, since most of the document is currently in AE

pinobatch commented 2 years ago

There's a WP:TIES argument in favor of American because the "Game Boy Color" wordmark is in American.

avivace commented 2 years ago

Let's go with AE, most of the document is with that already anway.
