Eh, both are proper spelling, I don't think any Russian manual said it's mandatory. The ë is used mainly in dictionaries, Russian schoolbooks, etc. where ambiguity should be minimal.

It's also used by people who respect the language and don't want to see it gradually turn into a shitshow like English where it's spelled ‘Manchester’, pronounced ‘Liverpool’.
