National varieties of English
[edit] In a recent edit to the page The Piper at the Gates of Dawn, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. 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, or New Zealand, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author 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. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Proper British spelling includes many French accents. Binksternet (talk) 04:13, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
–I have noticed that the use of the word "debut" with or without the accent is inconsistent in Wikipedia, e.g. The Please Please Me album by The Beatles is their debut, and the word has no accent, this is not uncommon, as the Rolling Stones debut, the Artic Monkeys debut, the Adele debut, The Who debut, and many other more English artists debut albums have such spelling. Thus, for consistency I decided to change the The Piper at the Gates of Dawn spelling to one that people is more used to, I think some words, such as café or façade should be written with the accent and it's acceptable, but I honestly don't think that début is common in British spelling, but rather as a dying variant, as one can see it written without the accent in many diccionaries- [1] or [2], even British ones.

[edit] Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at The Piper at the Gates of Dawn. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 06:37, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
