MOS:RETAIN
Please note that MOS:RETAIN states: “When an English variety's consistent usage has been established in an article, maintain it in the absence of consensus to the contrary. With few exceptions (e.g., when a topic has strong national ties or the change reduces ambiguity), there is no valid reason for changing from one acceptable option to another.”

For this reason, please do not replace the existing spellings with British English.

 * Why are you more interested in following a policy to the letter than in ensuring that the most appropriate variety of English is used for the article? Asperthrow (talk) 22:46, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
 * The Manual of Style is there for a reason. There is no "most appropriate" variety of English for this article, because this article relates to the Czech Republic, which isn't an Anglophone country. The article was not originally written in British English, so there is no legitimate reason to change it now, and "I don't like it" doesn't count. sawyer  * he/they *  talk  23:35, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
