That's the first time I've ever seen Wilde referred to as "British" and I found it weird.
Here in Italy we tend to call all people who come from Great Britain "English" because, hey, you speak English, you're English. But my English teacher in secondary school made it very clear: "Don't you ever call a Scot or a Welsh "English", unless you want to die a slow, painful death". XD
