ENGVAR
editPer this old revision, the article was written in British English. Under MOS:RETAIN, unless there was a proper reason to change, it still should be. Any thoughts? --John (talk) 18:17, 30 January 2018 (UTC)

- Makes sense. No hurry. --John (talk) 22:07, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
- They should all be done now. Parsecboy (talk) 01:32, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
