suggestion: it's entirely obvious that the guideline that applies here is "when all else fails, follow the variety established by the first contributor." If orthographic anti-Americans don't like that, please, let them search their souls and ask whether they are motivated by something other than a desire to improve WP. They can also take heart that Theater was moved to Theatre based on the same reasoning that would lead to Yoghurt being moved to Yogurt. Here, there is the additional factor of Yogurt being the first spelling used. This seems like a no-brainer for any reasonable person. Most of the arguments against the return the original spelling have taken the form "just live with it!" "Leave it alone!" Those aren't arguments.... If people think Americans are fat, too Jewish, money-grubbing or whatever, please try to keep those feelings separate from the process of reflecting on the right name for this article. --

community. For example, there's a big debate on spoiler warnings going on, I'm sure you've heard of it, and frankly it's taking forever. Now once that debate closes, if someone from the losing side decides that they're absolutely sure they're right - and tries to open the debate again - they'll be reverted. Same goes here. And lastly, as to your comment about how contacting everyone from the last votes was garunteed to preoduce the same outcome - the fact is the last two votes got more attention than this, and while my intrest are including as many as possible in a discussion, based on notion that they are interested which I determined from past activity in the votes, your intrest seem to be isolating the discussion to only people who support yogurt. Either way your argument has no merit since you yourself would not be here if someone hadn't contacted you.

those rules, guidelines and policies. I would not be defending the AE form of a name on an article that was originally created using BE, even if it was switched to AE for a significant amount of time before anyone who cared noticed. The reason we can't achieve consensus for the change is because many BE supporters are voting against the change simply because they prefer the BE version, and not because of WP policies (evidence: dearth of policy based reasons listed in polls for "keep 'yoghurt' side"; preponderance of such reasons listed for "restore original name" side). For those opposed to restoring the original name, it is about AE vs BE. For those who favor restoring the original name, it's about following WP policy in order to resolve conflicts. --

arguments, and that if they truly wanted to end the arguments about it they would support the move. We apparently fail to see that the American English spelling is the "right" way, and we are accused of Anti-Americanism. The person closing the debate is accused of closing it too early (apparently 6 days of debate isn't enough). Finally, the person who laboriously went through the past debates about this naming change and notified all voters of the new debate is accused of "manipulating the straw poll" somehow, even though he notified people on both sides of past arguments. If you feel that all these absences of respect for other Wikipedians is alright, then you need to take a good, hard look at yourself. -

because of it, and obviously I'm at the position where I have to defend my actions despite the support from the apparent majority per their comments here. The problem is - we would start the debate over if I violated Knowledge policy - and that is what this discussion is about - but some users have interpreted it as just an argument to start the debate over - which wouldn't happen anyway, but that's why there are so many comments (most of which are against starting the debate over). Honestly people, it's an h - it's not like we're changing the spelling of yogurt to trughoy - and this debate has happened enough times that we need to stop now. Let's focus on the article.
158:(No need for "sorry," I understand where you're coming from, though I disagree.) I urge people not to allow disgruntled tyrants to close down discussion on something that hasn't been allowed to reach its proper conclusion. If we address the question seriously, and without violating any Knowledge guidelines, the issue can be put to rest once and for all, because it will have been put to rest in the right way. If we, on the other hand, allow irrational people obsessed with their favorite spellings to break rules and/or violate basic protocols of reasoned discourse, WP is harmed. -- 676:
consensus on this article...or at least no one bothered to revert to the original spelling so it the status quo should prevail'. Needless to say (and yet I will say it), most editors of Knowledge are not much for traditionalism and believe that the quality of the edits and not seniority of the edit or editor should determine which edits to retain. I think this sort of spelling issue is a social problem that can be solved by technology, in this case by applying

population of WP editors was fixed, then it would still be very difficult to achieve consensus to ceasefire. But given the constant and never-ending influx of "new blood", it's impossible. But the first-contributor rule is much more cut and dried, and it's easy to cite in any situation where someone might propose a name change. Of course, it can't be cited if the current name is inconsistent with the first contributor rule,

The spirit of the rule is to stop fretting about these questions, and it is inconsistent with that spirit to find readings of the "rules" that support moving an article from one perfectly good spelling to another. 729:

a concerted get out the vote effort and the Oppose votes were NOT overwhelminginly in the majority, I think it's clear the wider WP community would support this move. Let's give them a chance to consider it, fairly this time! Then, if it's been considered in fair way, the result will be more "stable." If tyranny is what's largely responsible for the closing of a discussion, it will just keep coming up again. --

you can expect the same result. So in this case, since it's the same people that will vote - you can expect the same result. So why focus on something so miniscule as a letter when you can in fact improve the article. It's like we're starting a company, and we need to decide how it's going to function and how we're going to get started, but we're too busy deciding if the chairs should be padded or not.

of such reasons listed for 'restore original name' side)." I think this is the crux of the matter. Add to that the fact that many Americans or users of American spelling (like Mets501) are kind people who would rather avoid conflict, and the balance gets tipped slightly in favor of the less sensible spelling. In the case of theater/theatre, which parallels this in many ways (though there, the case for

dozen different arguments in favor of changing it back to the orginal name, "yogurt", each based on WP policy like using the most common name, and using the original name in case of conflicts like this.

2400:, and also in the BCE/BC date format dispute. One does not effect a good ceasefire by first evening the numbers shot on both sides. The spirit of our rule regarding national varieties is to stop arguing about it, stop considering it important, and stop moving pages between national varieties. That is policy, that is good sense, and we should go with it. 1159:. There is no argument to immediately quash such efforts now, and there will not be then. But if the article is moved to "yogurt", then anyone will be able to quash efforts to move it back to "yoghurt" by pointing out the first contributor policy. The reality is that this article can only be stable at "yogurt", and can never be stable at "yoghurt". 1222:". Have you got any evidence for this claim? My experience tells me otherwise. I've seen strong support for an editing freeze over national varieties. Perhaps an RfC or a post at the Village Pump would help clarify whether community consensus is stronger for the ceasefire or for the first-contributor default in situations such as the current one. - 1173:
policy, while the national-varieties ceasefire isn't (nor well the stable version rule, but you seem eager to lawyer over what counts as stable, in direct defiance of the spirit of the ceasefire). If you refuse to recognize the legitimacy of the ceasefire, then I guess you can guarantee instability at this title, but do you really want to do that?

So frankly either your talking about things that you probably don't understand - which by the way is "absolutely childish", or you forgot to sign in, or your acting as a sockpuppet - because no one's first edit is on a talk page. 1155:, because yoghurt was not the spelling/usage of the first contributor. Look at the last poll. Some relatively new guy showed up, made the same old arguments for change, they could not be refuted, and we had yet another poll. What's to prevent some other new guy doing this again in 3, 6, 12 months? 3, 6, 9 years? 593:
situation would of course be different! I'm not saying Americans are inherently more kind than Brits. The British are forced into a defensive position, and this makes big-heartedness difficult.) Anyway, instead of focusing on getting along, or restoring the British Empire, I think we should focus on WP policy.
2345:. I believe I've made cogent, well-reasoned arguments, based in policy, precdent, and common sense. If you disagree with my judgment, that's fair, but I don't think it's really appropriate to claim that no such arguments have been advanced. I'm not the only one who's been making those points, either. - 2038:
Mediation was rejected because Daniel Folsom opted out. That's fine, since I don't understand the point of going to mediation when those in favor of keeping the current name/style refuse to discuss the issue. Here's the problem: if you're happy with the status quo, you have little incentive to work

This article has missing citations - why isn't that being talked about on the talk page.

While I appreciate the comparison to the Bush administration (I've never drawn one of those before!), I have to point out an important difference. The decision to "stay the course" in Iraq costs human lives daily. We, on the other hand, are talking about an 'h' in the middle of a word on a website.

If an article has no stable history, and we have to make an arbitrary choice, then the guideline suggests going with the original (non-stub) contributor, but that is not the case with this article.

The argument for keeping the spelling as it is, per Knowledge policy, is this: We're talking about a difference between British and American English. Ultimately, there's no good reason to choose one over the other — in a vacuum, assuming no pre-existing policies, there's no good reason to prefer one

Serge, I'm sorry, but there simply isn't one unambiguous reading of policy on this matter. You can try to dictate to me what my motivations are, but I oppose the change even though I'm American and prefer American English. I oppose the move because I'm doing my level best to follow Knowledge policy
618:
If you want to talk about policy, then let's do so. I'm telling you, as a Wikipedian and an American, that WP policy supports leaving this article's title alone. Now can we have that conversation, or would you rather make sweeping generalizations and sarcastic remarks about our British brothers and

Mark, the issue isn't about American English vs. British English. It's about whether we follow Knowledge policies, or not. Knowledge editors have worked out rules to resolve these conflicts in order to avoid ongoing arguments like this. The reason this one won't die is because we are not following
407:
What I'm suggesting is that we have a serious discussion about this. We should not let orthographic imperialist tyrants "kill" open, free discussion. We should strive to make Knowledge better. Most of the reasons given for those voting against the change were clearly absurd. Given that Daniel F. made

Wait a second - what policy did I violate - I went through each previous discussion and just told people that voted that there was a discussion - I alreted both people that voted for yogurt and youghurt. That's absolute B.S. that your pushing there - Knowledge is not a democracy - there are no votes,

I also support reopening the discussion and completely agree with Cultural Freedom's argument above. It is a hallmark of Knowledge that decisions, through consensus, are ultimately made based on logic and reason. That has not happened here because of the "disgruntled tyrants". All of the logic and

Daniel, what are you talking about? We're talking about him saying the way you present your argument is fallacious and I was telling Dscarth he shouldn't have said that because it wasn't true. You're talking about editors being split on whether or not he should campaign for a different name. Doesn't
2606:
I would disagree with taht actually - I would say a lot of editors are split on the issue of whether you should just be on a talk page so you can campaign for a spelling - but regardless - remember how you were going to stop using everyone's name excessively - you're kinda doing that again. You see,
1676:
I think the fact that you have no response to my hung jury example says something. But the point is there are more important things on this article, and we just debated this - why don't we move on to something more important - like citations or questionable sections. Cultural Freedom all you've done
1375:
Dear Daniel, the charge stands that by contacting people already involved in the last vote -- whatever their votes -- you stacked the deck in such a way that the outcome was destined to be the same. Orthographic anti-Americans never change their votes. Ergo, we need to bring this up again. Moreover,
1138:
I answered this above. If we want to have a consistent policy/approach on how to settle conflicts like this, then we should follow it at every opportunity, including this one. Setting a precedent to the contrary just opens up potential for more conflict elsewhere. Leaving this at "yoghurt" leaves
956:
The only thing established or settled here is that there is no clear consensus on what the name should be. I really can't understand how one can claim that there is a settled, stable or established spelling style for this article, or that "all else" has not failed. I mean, that's like claiming the

GTBacchus, I don't know what your argument is. All I know is that the only argument for this article to be at "yoghurt" listed at the top of the previous poll was "article has had this spelling longer". If there were no arguments on the other side, that might mean something. But there were half a

That's such bullshit - my point is there was silence - you were the first to bring it up again in a while - which is why you and I are the only ones talking about it - everyone else thinks we left - thus before you brought it up - the discussion wasn't active, meaning I could've archived it. And by
2479:
OHH GOD! Things had finally started to calm down here - no one had commented in forever - I was even thining about archiving it - but you ruined it!!!! Haha, well the problem is, regardless of whether it should've been yogurt this whole time - the past is the past - and basically, per the wp policy
2121:
I'll ignore the immediate irony of someone like you making that statement, but essentially I passed on mediation for multiple reasons. 1) Because I'm planning on leaving the debate soon - and mediation is so time consuming that I'd be locked into a huge ordeal. 2) We couldn't even start immediately
1980:
I'm sorry, usually I would, but I've just been mentally and emotionally worn out by this debate. If it was just about the name it would be easier, but the fact is it hasn't been about that name it's about the tactics used in the discussion. Feel free to still have it though, but if my opinion/input

And yes, you have made a good point with the first contributor - but that's about it, and I've explained that A) we just voted on it - and a hung jury tends to stay hung for a while, B)the stay with the established spelling rule obviously over-rules the first contributor rule. But, that being said,

The ceasefire makes very good sense, and can consistently be applied in widely varying situations. All it states is "don't make edits over these spelling differences". That's unambiguous, and consistent with common sense. Encouraging people to dig around in the history to try and find reasons to

If it's already been explained why it's "more sensible", perhaps you can point me to it? I've been paying attention, and seen no such explanation. Second, please don't refer to other editors as "orthographic imperialist tyrants". It's very unlikely to be productive, as is generally the case with

Dear Daniel, You are quite right, at least a few of the people you told about the vote had previously voted for the "yogurt" spelling. I didn't look into every single one of them because of time constraints. Either way, my understanding is that directing people to a vote is a WP violation. If the

Yeah, yeah. The improvement of this article! Yay! You didn't do diddlysquat to improve this article, did you? Fourteen edits, all of which are reversions. Yet you edited the talk page 62 times. Come clean---you don't give a damn about it. You are just an agitator.
