The title of this article should really be Centralization with the Oxford standard English z. A minor change I know, but Wikipedia should really be consistent. —Preceding

No, I believe it should be centralized system as I is easier to refer to it as a system and to understand. Centralisation could be anything in the world but th e word "system" just adds meaning to the whole thing.

Oppose: Centralisation (or Centralization) has different meanings depending on context, this is what the article needs to explain, the different uses in engineering, science, business, politics, etc.

Consensus seeking to change name of article to "Centralization" from current spelling
I would like to move to change the name of this article from "Centralisation" as it is now, to "Centralization." This seems to have been raised numerous times over the years, and frankly, if no one really opposes, I'd be happy to make the change myself. I am seeking consensus though before making the change per standard protocol in these cases. Thanks! ♥♥Th78blue (They/Them/Their •

"Centralisation" and "Decentralisation" both have a fairly exact meaning whereas what distinguishes "Distribution" and "Distibuted Decentralisation" is not clear and not explained in the article. As far as I can tell, both are just examples of decentralisation. I can see that distribution seems to lack "leaf nodes" as they might be described as per graph theory. Can someone explain or otherwise removr this point of confusion?
