Re: Your message

The edit in question was not concerned with changing national varieties of English. The school in question is in Ghana (a former British colony) where the UK term "Secondary" is used far more than the US term "Senior High"; it was not, though, a matter of US En -v- UK En.

The school has been known by both names (often simultaneously!) e.g. the Wiki article on the school used both terms throughout. As part of my edit of the school's article, I made the use of the name consistent through the article (because Wiki likes consistency), which involved choosing to use one name or the other. I opted to use the school's official name. The Ghanaian Government's Ministry of Education calls the school Kumassi Anglican Secondary School on its 2016 web page; the sign on the front gate reads "Kumassi Anglican Secondary School"; it is widely known as KASS (for Kumassi Anglican Secondary School) and, indeed, the results website of the Ghana National Science and Maths Quiz refers to it as KASS. In changing the name on the quiz article, I was

extending the consistency
ensuring that the link connected to the correct place and
correcting the initial error in the quiz article.

I did not change the proper noun from the official name; I changed it to the official name! — Preceding unsigned comment added by TeekeeyMisha (talk • contribs) 22:00, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When using certain templates (such as welcome templates and user warnings) on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:uw-test1}} instead of {{uw-test1}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. Thank you. Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ (talk) 23:20, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
