tyre (wheel) important to use non (US) regional English
This disambiguation page was moved here from Tyre (disambiguation) to help disambiguate [Tyre, Lebanon] and [tire|tyre] / [tire]. This is important primarily because of regional differences in the spelling of tyre/tire. In order that English readers from countries like UK can easily find this common word [tire|tyre], please refrain from the use of regional (in particular U.S. and Canadian) English in this disambiguation page.
In order to help this, I have changed the wording to be more clear for me, as a native British speaker, and the current wording avoids getting into regional spelling of words like (spelled vs spelt). Widefox 13:21, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
- The page is under "tire." The disambiguation page should link to "tire." And this is, by the way, one word in which the UK is the exception rather than the rule (unlike "color," "honor," etc.). There is no "non-regional" English, really. Twin Bird (talk) 19:47, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
Spelt -> Spelled
Replaced spelt to say spelled. See no reason to use 'spelt' when spelled is a perfectly good alternative for all English writers. --81.149.165.235 (talk) 19:37, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
Pneumatic Tyre
This article refers only to pneumatic tyres. Since tyre is a middle English word for the riding surface of a wheel, would it be better to include waggon wheel tyres - binding metal strips? B0bGeezer (talk) 10:54, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
