Hallo there.
Maybe this is not the right place to say this, but I have to start somewhere :-].
In https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/FAQ there are carefully corrected previous values 50 BTC to actual 25 BTC. However, in the last section (Security) there is "...Each correct guess yields, at present, fifty Bitcoins, and as Bitcoins are presently...".
As FAQ section is definitely some kind of showcase for the Bitcoin, especially for newbies, it should be corrected. Maybe the string "fifty" should be coaxed similarly to the "50" value also elsewhere and everywhere in the wiki.

I have been studying&using Bitcoin for some time and today returned to basics (preparing to dive into original Satoshi paper), so I stumbled upon this.
"There should not be any signed int. If you've found a signed int somewhere, please tell me (within the next 25 years please) and I'll change it to unsigned int." -- Satoshi
