Alrightly, I'm a person that likes consistency, and I see color and colour used in many different places. Both are correct, I know, but i think we should stick with one of them. What do you guys think? Penro 19:31, 30 April 2017 (EDT)

Colour Seeing how it is used in everyplace besides the USA PoultrysigSSB4.pngPoultryPoultrysigSSBM.png(talk) the God-Slayer 19:56, 30 April 2017 (EDT)

This is covered in the Manual of Style. We don't have a preference between American/British English in general. Miles (talk) 20:22, 30 April 2017 (EDT)

Echoing Miles, SW:MoS explicitly states:
There is no preference whether to use American or non-American English; therefore, one should not make an edit to a page that consists of only changing such spelling/grammar. However, it is preferred to remain consistent within a section or article.
