"Cipher" or "Cypher"?

Both spellings are correct, depending on whether it is American English or British English. Currently, the body of the article (which I wrote using American English) uses "cipher", but the caption for the image of the book cipher uses "cypher" instead. For consistency, which one should be used? --Avico (talk) 21:46, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

It's fine! For me, "cypher" looks more reasonable, but I looked it up and the current "mainstream" is to write otherwise, so I changed it after that. It seems that it also has to do with British and American spelling conventions, which I prefer the former, but feel free to adjust my spelling at any time! --BOBO (talk) 21:51, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
