General Source: ATV 4:2529; OM 379 passim.

General Summary: Skousen accepts the correct spelling as Amalickiah (because it is spelled this way in the first two occurrences in O, and because of corrections made); all of the other variations are scribal errors.

Other occurrences not discussed in ATV: Alma 46:7, 28, 29, 32; 47:12, 27b; 49:11; 51:9, 11, 12, 37; 62:35, but all are listed in Skousen, “Translating the Book of Mormon: The Evidence from the Original Manuscript,” in N. Reynolds, ed., Book of Mormon Authorship Revisited (FARMS, 1997), 79-82 (whole article pp. 61-95).
