Pinyin for 侍者 should be shìzhě not shì zhē

No, I'd just looked up this word the other day, and then by chance there was a posting in another thread that gave the pronunciation for this word as shì zhē. Having just looked up the word, I was pretty sure that the pronunciation was not right, so I checked Adsotrans. When that also gave the pronunciation as shì zhē, I went to my dictionaries (the Oxford Chinese-English dictionary, and also 现代汉语词典) to verify the pronunciation. Both dictionaries list the pronunciation of 侍者 as shìzhě. There is also no mention of the character 者 having the pronunciation zhē.
