Spelling fix[edit]

The correct spelling of the word seems to be "dissension", not "dissention". Neither the OED nor dictionary.com have entries for dissention, and a google search for the words returns about 500,000 hits for dissention, but 4,000,000 for dissension.

There are 5,000+ print citations on Google Books with the irregular spelling "dissention", we should probably keep that one also as an irregular spelling. Thanks for the new page though. - TheDaveRoss 02:07, 19 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
