Edit request from Forward Unto Dawn, 5 September 2010

[edit]

Mistake: "rather 'then'..." should be "rather 'than'...". This has nothing to do with national English spelling variations; the wrong word has been used.--Forward Unto Dawn 11:08, 5 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Merge with Template:British-English-editnotice

[edit]

I have redirected Template:British-English-editnotice to this template as they both seem to serve the same purpose. However the wording of the other one was shorter and perhaps clearer than this one. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:32, 20 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Flag

[edit]

Suggest we remove the flag. "British English" does not imply an association of the article with Britain, merely that the article is substantially written in the style of English used in Britain, particularly with respect to spelling. "Commonwealth English" and "International English" both have value (and dis-value) as labels, but really I'd rather not splinter this thing further than necessary.

Agree and per rationale at WP:INFOBOXFLAG. The image adds nothing and would be particularly inappropriate were it to 'pop up' when editing Ireland-related articles, for example. RashersTierney (talk) 15:46, 7 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
can it be shaded red or yellow instead? --Merbabu (talk) 10:37, 8 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Need the same template for American English

[edit]

Would anyone be willing to create a template nearly identical to this one, but for an American English editnotice? I would gladly attempt it myself, but I can't for the life of me find the actual source text for the British English template. -- Fyrefly (talk) 20:38, 18 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
