This is a list of terms that are used inconsistently on the wiki.

List of names Suggestion for achieving consistency
Persistent storage, persistent data (All instances of "register" should be checked though). Always use "Persistent storage" and "Temporary storage". Make clear somewhere that, unless otherwise stated, all references to registers are talking about temporary storage.
sprite, action, real sprite, action sprite, pseudo sprite
Action X, ActionX The main article is without spaces.

Once the style fixes of the wiki are done, this list can relatively easily be auto-edited to a common style. Thus do not (yet) bother to search for a term everywhere, but just add all spellings found to this list
