Not all the world is American (ENGVAR)
Please check WP:ENGVAR for policies that recognize the many different Englishes that exist, like the one in England. "whilst" is a perfectly good word.

Please read WP:ENGVAR for why your edit was reverted. This policy came about because people repeatedly and unthinkingly imposed their own English variant on this Wikipedia. And then edit warred about it. It seems amazing that readers of Wikipedia wouldn't catch on that there's a whole world out there. Consider both metalled and prepone. 'Metalled' is an English word from Victorian England, no longer used there, but retained in India. If you'll look at wikt:Citations:prepone you'll see that 'prepone' was a joke, but then it wasn't - it became a 'real' word used in India and then elsewhere. English has become global, and MOS:ENGVAR asks that you take a global viewpoint when editing here. Shenme (talk) 01:30, 29 August 2021 (UTC)
 * How strange, you don't like "whilst" but do like "harbour", "medallist", but not "amongst"? Your repeatedly repeated removal of 'King' from links has been reverted several times. Considering the article was marked as using "Australian English" you were not 'wrong' when you changed "practicing" to "practising", but the humorous thing is the insertion was by an Australian editor. Did you know that "license" is considered Australian English? Why did you change that to "licence" except due to your own preferences?
 * Please consider you may be imposing your own biases regarding English, Australian English, when your ideas of what that is differ from the common usage. That would be rude, right? Shenme (talk) 02:33, 29 August 2021 (UTC)
