Please respect the variety of humanity

This is the English-language Wikipedia, not the American Wikipedia. We respect all varieties of English usage. That particular article was started by a user of British spelling, and therefore remains as "colour" rather than "color." Please read WP:ENGVAR for a more detailed explanation. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:33, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Warning

Per WP:ENGVAR, the article should retain the original spelling variation. The title goes back to 2002 as "Colour" and spelling has been established as such for quite some time. If you continue to make this or similar changes, you may be blocked from editing. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 21:30, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Final warning

Further disruptive edits involving spelling changes will result in a block. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 21:38, 18 August 2009 (UTC)\
