I just added a new coin in catalog and I saw the message that numista display it until the coin is validated by referees.

​It should be "you've" or "you have" ...

Yeah, I would agree with it being you have. If I am not mistaken, in this situation, a singular you is past tense whereas a you have is a form of present tense. And seeing as how the next sentence is in present tense, it may be best to keep the tenses consistent.

And there is another error, although only on the American-Enlgish version of the site:

Oof. I really cannot spell. z)

There are two: American and British. The main difference being the spelling of catalogue. ;)

​I thought there were two versions of this site: French and English. But there's three: French, US English, and UK English? Which obe is this, US or UK? Hiw do I switch to the other?

To figure out which version you have, go to any page with the word catalogue. With the ue is British; without is American. They should all be consistent.

To switch between American English and British English is not as simple as switching between English and French. To switch which version of English you have, I believe you must change the language preference of your browser. Numista should automatically adjust accordingly (and the only difference is the spelling of some words).

American and British versions do not differ on coin pages, so user is not affected anyway. It takes into account your browser language settings.
