Varieties of English
In an article about a book by a British author, please don't "correct" the spelling to American English as you did here. I've reverted to "idolised".

The rules on varieties of English are basically that if the topic has links to an English-speaking country, then English Wikipedia uses the variety of English spoken there. An article on a topic with no particular geographical link - perhaps a chemical, or a philosophical concept - can be written in any variety of English, used consistently, but that used by the first main contributor should not be changed unless there is a very good reason. See WP:ENGVAR. Thanks. Pam D  10:28, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
