Was there some decision at some point that mandated the absurd practice of passive-aggressively labelling the ordinary standard English spellings of English words in English as "alternative" versions of American words? Correctrix (talk) 08:24, 1 February 2020 (UTC)


 * It's not absurd nor passive-aggressive. If you ask the question in a reasonable, fair human way then I (as a native British speaker) will engage. Until then happy panicking. Equinox ◑ 11:14, 1 February 2020 (UTC)


 * It does feel odd that the "alternative spellings" always list all the countries where it's used, which tends to be everywhere except the US, if complete, while the one used in a single country is the treated as a standard. I presume it derives from Wikimedia Foundation being based in America and maybe a high percentage of users being American. But I'm unsure if it's an accepted rule for the project...
