Two of the [https://rapidapi.com/blog/best-online-dictionaries/ best] online dictionarys, [https://www.collinsdictionary.com/us/spellcheck/english?q=changable Collins], and [https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/changable Merriam-Webster] '''don't''' have changeable ''without'' the first e. They do however have it with the e [https://www.collinsdictionary.com/us/dictionary/english/changeable here] and [https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/changeable here]. Several other sites rank "changable" as a common misspelling. Lets not perpetuate that on RC.

Misspelling?

Two of the best online dictionarys, Collins, and Merriam-Webster don't have changeable without the first e. They do however have it with the e here and here. Several other sites rank "changable" as a common misspelling. Lets not perpetuate that on RC.

Since the spelling is made a point of, we should stick with the preferred spelling in the task name and description. --Paddy3118 (talk) 08:57, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
