In a recent edit, you changed one or more words from one international variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For subjects exclusively related to Britain (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to other English-speaking countries, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the appropriate variety of English used there. If it is an international topic, use the same form of English the original author used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to the other, even if you don't normally use the version the article is written in. Respect other people's versions of English. They in turn should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any queries about all this, you can ask me on my talk page or you can visit the help desk. This article uses Canadian English, in which "Centre" is the correct spelling Johnny Au (talk) 02:24, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

The personal attack directed at me
Hello Markhenry12321. I did not mean to inflame you. I meant to revert your attempts to change the spellings to American English. I have changed them back to Canadian English, since the sporting venues that you have edited are in Canada. As stated in the Manual of Style, articles pertaining to Canada use Canadian English, while articles pertaining to the United States use American English. For example, the article Air Canada Centre is spelled "Centre", since it is in Canada. On the other hand, the article American Airlines Center is spelled "Center", since it is in the United States. In fact, I have only reverted your edits once. Alex@MTRL and Blackjays1 reverted your edits as well. I have asked an administrator to block you for twelve hours. This block is not made to punish you in any way. Repeatedly changing the spellings incorrectly can be considered vandalism, especially if it done more than twice despite numerous warnings. At least the block is not for one day, one week, one month, one year, or even an indefinite length of time. This block is given so that you would be forced to think twice before editing. I would give you a second chance at editing if you apologize to me for your personal attack on my talk page, which I had removed, since personal attacks are prohibited in Wikipedia. Thank you.
