But I'm not so sure that 'mis-spelling' is what this is, given that
both variants have been used in the titles of books by reputable
publishers. I absolutely agree that a redirect is in order -- we
don't need two articles here. But I also think that a line or two in
the body of the article covering the variant spelling is warranted,
since it's something that a reader is likely to wonder about.

Apparently your writ does not run as far as that article. A vote on the
matter has come up about evenly divided. Several attempts have been made to
put some language in about the matter. All such attempts have been
reverted, usually by Wik.
Just an aside, but Adolph is an accepted English spelling, just look at any
Coors or bottle. A google search for either name will bring up
coors.com.
