| If Bricklink chooses to use 'His Majesty's English', they should
do so correctly. If I need a pilar I should not have to type 'pillar'
with two LL and go on a wild goose chase.
second: the object that appeares when You look for the Pilar 6168 is something
completely different. also the coloures don't match. Please look in to this.

You have the wrong pil(l)ar: pilar with one l is an adjective and is relative
to hair, the noun, the architectural column, takes two l.

Sorry, I'm to tyred to reply 
PS: BrickLink isn't an English UK site.
There's no English Standard, see Wikipedia:
Unlike with some other standard languages, there is no national academy or
international academy with ultimate authority to codify Standard English; its
codification is thus only by widespread prescriptive consensus. The codification
is therefore not exhaustive or unanimous...

In the UK, we spell it pillar, the same as in US English. I had never seen the
word pilar until today.
