Anyone have Wikipedia editing privileges? I just happened to notice a small typo (spelling error) under https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hades#Cult_and_epithets, subhead: “In Latin or Etruscan:” where the next to last bullet entry reads: “• Uragus, expressive of bis power over fire.”

That “bis” should obviously be corrected to “his”.
