Feel free to ask me anything here, just know that I won’t be on Wikipedia for most of the day, maybe edit a bit at night for a few hours, but I will eventually get back to you. [[User:TheresAGoldenSky|TheresAGoldenSky]] ([[User talk:TheresAGoldenSky#top|talk]]) 21:03, 5 October 2025 (UTC) |

[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello. In a recent edit to the page [[:Mainland Travel Permit for Hong Kong and Macao Resident]], 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 [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#National varieties of English|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 [[List of countries and territories where English is an official language|English-speaking country]], such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the ”first” author of the article 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 [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]]. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on [[User talk:CodeTalker|my talk page]] or visit the [[Wikipedia:Help desk|help desk]]. Thank you. <!– Template:uw-engvar –> [[User:CodeTalker|CodeTalker]] ([[User talk:CodeTalker|talk]]) 05:08, 6 October 2025 (UTC) |

Hello. In a recent edit to the page Mainland Travel Permit for Hong Kong and Macao Resident, 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, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the first author of the article 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. Thank you. CodeTalker (talk) 05:08, 6 October 2025 (UTC)
