Dear Alys,

Since Habit is a US site and every other part of the site is in American English, standardization of "gray" would be much more appropriate (it's also the standard put forth by AP style, Webster's, Gregg Reference Manual, etc). Maintenance of links (which are few, as "grey" rarely appears in article titles; also, incorrect links would still direct to the proper page, just not the anchor) seems a lesser concern than appropriate word usage; also, a couple achievement/quest writers' inconsistent use of the British spelling (the second author perhaps simply following an improper precedent) should not entail improper usage throughout the rest of the site and wiki. While either is technically "correct", consistency is of overriding importance; this is somewhat akin to using "colour" in an American publication — it's jarring and unorthodox.

However, if that's the Habit standard, that's fine — I'll independently reinstate the other concurrent edits I made.

Thanks for taking the time to explain the reasoning.
