Declined. I don't see any clear consensus at the talk page that it's the appropriate MOS:ENGVAR for the article, and at least one thread of disputation against the idea. MOS:RETAIN applies as a default, but people are likely to make US "strong national ties" arguments here, and if that view prevailed it would trump RETAIN. If I've ever seen an ENGVAR case that calls for an RfC, it's probably this one. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ≼ 11:32, 20 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

All right, let's ignore the fact that british english is used consistently through the article right now and pray it won't degenerate into a mess over time. Appah Rao (talk) 00:58, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
