Inconsistent British and American spellings

Latest comment: 2 months ago4 comments2 people in discussion

The sentences in this article use inconsistent British and American spellings. I will be nominating this article for improvement at WP:AFIN#Adult animation. I’ve already made a to-do list, and I will also be notifying the associated WikiProjects. 2600 etc (talk) 17:42, 25 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Could you share that to-do list? In solidarity - Historyday01 (talk) 18:54, 25 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

It’s near the top of the page. /to do 2600 etc (talk) 21:32, 25 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Oh, I see where it says "Use a consistent variety of English on this article." Perhaps it would be best to go through section by section? In solidarity - Historyday01 (talk) 21:52, 25 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
