I reverted your recent edit to Film speed because the material you added wasn't correct. ISO stands for International Organization for Standardization; it's not an acronym—it actually derives from the Greek word isos. It's covered quite well in the ISO article linked above.

The lead section of a Wikipedia article serves as an introduction to the entire article, so we usually avoid going into too much detail. If you read a bit further into the Film speed article, the full name of the organization is given in the section ISO.

Although Wikipedia policy urges editors to be bold, it also urges them to be careful. It's usually a good idea to be sure what you're adding is correct before making the edit. When in doubt, I suggest searching Wikipedia to see if some information on the material is already available—it's sometimes surprising how much is included in Wikipedia.

Don't be discouraged that your edit was reverted—a great many are. Perhaps be a bit more careful before making an edit; in the long run, you'll contribute much more effectively. JeffConrad (talk) 06:55, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
