- Thank you. Could you let me know in what way I deviated from the desired style?

- Hi, in your edit to The Climate Group you changed "tonne" to "ton". I was originally thinking this was a violation of
WP:ENGVAR, changing a British English spelling to a US English spelling. But actually it's worse than that, you changed the actual values, since a
tonne is not just a different spelling of
ton; it's a different unit of mass. I hope this explains things. Thanks, and happy editing!
