Help

Do we use American English or British? EXE. jail or gaol.

This is detailed in the Manual Of Style, specifically this section. Usage varies but generally we try to be consistent within an article and if one is more appropriate for the subject that one. Generally going and changing from one to another without a significant reason is frowned upon. --pgk^(talk) 18:16, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
