Despatch

[edit]

Despatch was the common spelling during the history of this ship, and is still the English version of the word. Why are we using the modern or American version here? Broichmore (talk) 07:57, 22 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Broichmore: Probably oversight/inattention/muscle memory. Feel absolutely free to change it when you see it. Acad Ronin (talk) 12:57, 22 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
