Fix the terms used to refer to the variations of the English language.

Petition Details

When choosing a language online there is usually more than one English option and they are often incorrect. e.g. "British English" will refer to English & "English" will refer to US English.
I propose they be officially termed "Traditional English" & "Simplified English" respectively.
