Talk:Coal tar

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Is this a British spelling? In American English no hyphen is used. I hesitate to move it if it is a legitimate difference. Rmhermen 18:17, Aug 8, 2003 (UTC)

I'm English and none of my dictionaries use a hyphen. I've moved the page accordingly. --Camembert
