Thanks for the report, @CMalcheski.

I edited the report to be less hostile. There is no need for that because of a small typo. Please by mindful of the community guidelines when submitting reports in the future.

This was not a typo. This was lack of education. A typo is an honest mistake. Not understanding a language is no mistake. It is lack of education.

"Add a text object to the scene and try to apply it's rotation or location."

And it continues. The possessive form of "it" is "its." It is (it's) an exception to the apostrophe rule. The possessive form of "it" is "its" with NO apostrophe.

"Add a text object to the scene and try to apply its (notice no apostrophe) rotation or location."

"It is" gets written as "it's." "Belonging to it" gets written as "its." Schools used to teach this stuff at a very young age. No longer.

Please report all such things either all at once or as separate reports. This report is already closed, so you need to create a new one.
Just for example, I have an education but I am not an English speaker. For me, this is not a mistake. And for those who could forget it, this is a typo. For you, if you are hostile, it is ignorance of education...

The proper use of an apostrophe has not been taught since the 1990s. This is true regardless of what somebody's native language is. If I'm doing something wrong in Blender, should I get defensive and declare there's no problem? Or just learn how to do it right? "Uneducated" means "not properly taught." It does not mean stupid. Bad teachers. I will let this ticket die now.
