National varieties of English
In a recent edit to the page June Clark (artist), 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 India, use Indian English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, 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. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 17:58, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Theroadislong Thanks for the information, just learning.--TooTall96 (talk) 18:21, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
 * I think TooTall96 thought, as did I, that since this is Canadian artist, one of the simple edits they could do to begin would be changing it from American to Canadian variety of English. Apologies if that was a misunderstanding, I take the blame. So, to be clear, whoever begins the article should dictate the version of English the article is written in? Regardless of Canadian subject vs subject from US? I want to make sure I teach this correctly. Thanks!--Heathart (talk) 20:56, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
 * As I understand it we keep the spelling that it was created with, but I could be wrong and to be honest I didn't even know that Canadian spelling was different to USA! Feel free to revert my edits! Theroadislong (talk) 00:04, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
 * This is indeed one of the trickier ones as the subject is both American and Canadian. However, given that the subject's artistic career began after she emigrated to Canada and that the page is about her artwork, Canadian spelling should be used. OhanaUnitedTalk page 01:01, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
