A change of 'color' to 'colour' in Four color theorem[edit]

Your recent edits to the Four color theorem article were unsourced and doubtful IMHO, so I reverted them. The Wilson's work is referenced as a source for the quotation you changed and, according to Web catalogs (like MathSciNet.ams and WorldCat), the work has Color, not Colour in its title. Based on that I see no reason to guess it was colour in the contents. Additionally, you justify your edits with "the correct spelling in Britain", which seems invalid to me, as the book has been published by Princeton University Press in Princeton, New Jersey, USA.

If you think I'm wrong and your changes should be restored, please detail your reasoning either here or at my talk page User talk:CiaPan, or (best) at the article's talk page Talk:Four color theorem.
