Spelling
When an article is written using one standard variety of English, further edits should continue that use unless the subject has a predominant and peculiar association with a nation where another variety prevails.

For example, an article on Adam Smith ought to be written in British English; an article on Charles Sanders Peirce should be written in American English. The article “Liquorice” retains British spelling because it was begun in British English; the article “Goat” retains American spelling because it was begun in American English; likewise “Alfalfa” and “Inch”. — SlamDiego  &#8592;T 22:40, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
