Regarding "honor" vs. "honour": I'm as America-centric as they come but it seems to me the real question here is which spelling a German writing in English would use. I checked my correspondence with a German friend (who writes in English) and he consistently uses the British spellings, e.g., "colour" rather than "color". I suspect that most Europeans learn British English, rather than American English, and spell words correspondingly. (Meanwhile I will continue to use American spellings in the articles I write and edit!)
On the other hand, I can't figure out why MPF bothered to "correct" the spelling in the first place when Berton (who is European, I believe) wrote the article and used "honor" consistently throughout. MrDarwin 03:16, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
"Adolf Engler" the name by which he is known, quite correctly should be the title of the article; his full name should be given near the beginning of the article Paul venter 21:44, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
