National varieties of English
In a recent edit to the page Green-head ant, 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 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. AusLondonder (talk) 03:00, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
 * This article uses Australian English. No justification existed for changing it to American English spelling. This violates WP:RETAIN and WP:TIES AusLondonder (talk) 03:04, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

April 2016
Please don't change the format of dates, as you did to Death of Alexandra Mezher. As a general rule, if an article has evolved using predominantly one format, the dates should be left in the format they were originally written in, unless there are reasons for changing it based on strong national ties to the topic. Please also note that Wikipedia does not use ordinal suffixes (e.g., st, nd, th), articles, or leading zeros on dates.

For more information about how dates should be written on Wikipedia, please see this page.

If you have any questions about this, ask me on my talk page, or place  on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Enjoy your time on Wikipedia. Thank you. AusLondonder (talk) 03:03, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

The article you changed is not exclusively North American. It was started in British English, by me, and should stay that way, see WP:RETAIN and WP:TIES
