Grammar and the Wikipedia Manual of style
Hi, while anyone prepared to work away at the little edits is always welcome, can you please make yourself aware of some of the basics around the Manual of style (MOS) and the use of various versions of English. Staring with language, there is a whole section dedicated to which version of English to use, but basically whatever is most suited to the article or if that isn't applicable whichever was used in the first substantial edit. So with an article like Whistler, British Columbia, Canadian English is preferred and the use of Canadian spelling, so neighbourhood was not wrong.

You also, in a couple of articles, spelt numbers out in full claiming "under 100 should be typed out", there might be a style guide that says that - but not Wikipedia's - here the policy (MOS:NUMERAL) is under 10 is spelt out, anything greater should be written in figures.

The whole MOS is pretty large and I doubt anyone knows all of it, but if you're going to make those types of edits, read the appropriate parts first, you'll save yourself a lot of trouble down the line. NtheP (talk) 21:37, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
