usage in English is bound to be both confusing and confused, and my edit was an effort, as a native speaker, to clarify the plain fact that proposed legislation may be enacted or defeated, or simply abandoned, while enacted legislation may be signed, vetoed, or permitted to become law in the absence of presidential action.)    Now, I think I recall being around WP, when consideration was given to having separate Commonwealth (or British), and U.S./American (or North American) WP's.
