Spelling

Sorry! My summary got cut off! It was: 1) Previous move violated Wikipedia's guidelines on English. (The Wikipedian made reference to this part of Russia being a part of Europe. That is irrelevant.) 2) The developers use the Shakespearean/American English. I'm working with the developers, so I should know. Remember: there is no rule saying things in Europe use British English. Europe is not part of the British Empire. Best, PeterH2 (talk) 14:46, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

More on spelling... Where the name of the project was given using "centre" or "Centre", I have changed it to "Center". From my study of the wikipedia style guidelines, it seems to me proper that the spelling be consistent with the earliest usage in the article history, when it was renamed to "Okhta Center." The official project documents are in Russian, so there is no official Latin-alphabet spelling of the project name. I have retained the British spelling in citations and other uses of the word "centre" in proper names or titles. Etudiant (talk) 17:59, 15 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Separate topics

"Okhta Center" search currently redirects here. I would suggest to separate it into two articles, or at least rename it "Okhta Center" with a section on Lakhta as a final version of the project. OC was a huge controversy, and a very important example of corruption in Russia. LC is just a building. There are two separate articles in Russian Wikipedia.Cosainsé (talk) 16:14, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
