* {{ping|Nimbus|Vossanova|Epicgenius|Revirvlkodlaku}} OK, disputations make sense.
:I have reverted (back into US "aluminum") when:
::US/Canadian: {Use American English}, {Use Canadian English}, US/CAN company, location, ties (coins).
:Kept British/IUPAC "aluminium" when
::explicitly: having {{tl|Chembox}}, {Use British English}, location or company Europe/Asia/Africa, ties, art.
::otherwise (indecisive)
:This implies that a small grey area still exists (interpretation; also typo-like misss). Did not research article history for ENGVAR.
:Affected: initial edits: ca 200 (incidentally, articles starting 0-9, A, Z mostly; includes "aero..." ;-) ), selfreverted ca. 100. Will apply this if and when I check other articles for alum.

::Thanks for the explanation; that makes sense. I was puzzled when you changed "aluminum" to "aluminium" on the ] article, since that is not at all related to chemistry.

:::As you write. (I did not touch 28 LSt of course any more). My original thought: every substance aluminium is the chemical stuff. Including alloys, allotropes, material used in architecture, planes, .. But will not compete over it. {chembox} is a main indicator. ] (]) 14:20, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

FWIW, a "script small l" is an allograph of {{angbr|l}} that just happens to have its own code-point ({{unichar|2113|script small l}}) but it could be an element of some arbitrary script-style typeface and be encoded as {{unichar|006c|Latin small letter l}}. So '''I declare''' that it complies with the SI spec.{{smiley}} Or are you telling me that I can't use this <span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;";>l</span> (because it has a curved foot)?
