Words consistenly used wrong on the wiki

A list of terms frequently used wrong has been added to MW:Good Writing. This thread can still be used for suggestions.
 
What about frequent grammar errors as well, like its and it's?

Even that's not consistently used wrong.

This topic is dealt with words used wrong, not universal grammar errors.
 
Just a minor nitpick, but shouldn't it be "frequently" or "persistently" rather than "consistently"?

Oh my gosh, don't put irony in these type of threads
 
But since we're correcting words as we go, wouldn't it be now "inconsistent", with now the word being used correctly and incorrectly?
 
Double post:

You know, "pun" is misused. Does it warrant a mention here?
 
I've mentioned this on the talk page, but I don't think Mario Golf (GBC) is a remake.

I definitely think it does. Care to make a definition of both?

I don't know either. I get baffled between the two often.
 
I thought of adding this to the list. What's everyone's thoughts?

Beta:"Beta" refers to the period in software development where a product is feature-complete, but has yet to be extensively bug-tested or optimized. This usually happens long after things like early concepts being rejected, characters being cut from the game... etc.

While the MarioWiki uses the name "Beta Elements" for page about unused, changed or cut content for the sake of concision, "Beta" should not be used as a shorthand for "things that changed during development". More precise terms such as "cut", "unused", "concept art" or simple "early" should be used instead. Of course, this does not apply if the information is confirmed to be from an actual Beta build.
