Hello. In a recent edit to the page The Lord of the Rings, you changed one or more words or styles from one national 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 a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (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 another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. 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 questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk.  Please only correct actual spelling errors, not just where different countries have different spelling standards. zchrykng (talk) 16:59, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

Oh okay! Sorry about that. There is one edit that I made that should stay. The 111th to 111st (eleventy first) is part of the novel, and I feel should stay. SilverStrain (talk) 17:24, 4 June 2021 (UTC)


 * No worries. I think that sounds fine, but if another editor objects, you need to work it out on the article's talk page. The American English, British English, etc thing is something that catches all of us at least once. That is why there is an entire template to help clarify the issue. ;) zchrykng (talk) 18:12, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
