Varieties of English
editWhen you made this edit to Saturation diving, you made two errors:
- You changed the filename of an image from File:US Navy 020723-N-7479T-002 Navy diver conducts deep sea salvage operations.jpg to File:US Navy 020723-N-7479T-002 Navy diver conducts deep-sea salvage operations.jpg. The first name exists, the second one doesn't. There's no requirement anywhere that a filename has to be grammatically accurate, so your change simply broke the link to the file.
- You changed "pressurised" to "pressurized". The word "pressurised" is a quite normal spelling in British English, so there is nothing wrong with an editor using it. You should not think that your preferred spelling variant is somehow better that that used by other editors.
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. --RexxS (talk) 21:14, 11 May 2019 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at YouTube. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Please don't break stuff. Chris Troutman (talk) 13:28, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
- Hey, Troutman, take a look at this link. Isn't there something missing? I don't know. All I see next to that globe icon is http: I click on the link and all I get is "400 Bad Request The request is invalid." I tried fixing it but got complaints for going so. We better leave this to the professionals so that the status quo remains the same.
