Template talk:Editnotices/Page/Kingdom of Greece

Hello. A few days ago I created this edit notice page, to inform users that any changes to Kingdom of Greece shall be made using British English. Today I finished with fully 'converting' the article's language to British English. I didn't know that it isn't automatically added to Edit Page's information.

So, if it is possible, I am requesting that a template editor or an administrator approves of this editnotice so that the box is added when editing the page mentioned above.

Thank you. Morretor (talk) 10:52, 10 August 2017 (UTC)


 * , I've had a look at the changes you've made and many aren't just Anglicizing the spelling but they also alter the meaning.
 * small is NOT synonymous with inadequate. To use a Greek example, a small force was perfectly adequate at the Battle of Thermopylae until they were betrayed by Ephialtes of Trachis.
 * countryside doesn't take a plural.
 * "himself appoints" was quite clear, "appoints himself" is ambiguous.
 * mattock didn't need to be capitalised, it's not a proper noun.
 * "shipowners" -> "adverse experiences of"... I really don't see what this change was intended to achieve.
 * Moreover, -sed/-zed is NOT a British/American thing. According to Fowler's Modern English Usage it depends on whether words were derived from Greek or whether they were influenced by French en route. The OED happily uses -ize.
 * In general we try to avoid the pedantry of switching from one spelling style to another. Misplaced pedantry is even more to be avoided.
 * You point out that you have a conflict of interest, but there's nothing on your user page or talk page to explain what the conflict might be. Could you shed some light?
