[edit] Utilize, organize, et al.
Please don't make wholesale changes from Commonwealth to American spellings or vice versa. See the Manual of style on this: "If an article is predominantly written in one type of English, aim to conform to that type rather than provoking conflict by changing to another." I'm an American and I prefer the -ize spelling too, but Wikipedia is an international resource, and "corrections" like this just provoke people. Thanks. · rodii · 22:01, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
