I would propose that while we have no preference for the ''whole'' wiki, individual articles should maintain constancy. Thus, if an article contains both the words "colour" and "saber," one should be changed to match regional spelling of the other. To be frank, I can't think of a publication where both are used even in different articles, but I know that no copy editor would let the two coexist in the ''same'' article.
