"it's" should be changed to "its" on help center "How do I create an account?" page

Question

In the help center's how do I create an account? page there is the following text:

In addition to creating an account for this site (and it’s associated meta-discussion site)...

This should be written as follows because the possessive form is being used:

In addition to creating an account for this site (and its associated meta-discussion site)...

Well, I, for one, have never seen so many similar error in my life then on these site's. It effects me so vary greatly. — Pollyanna, Jul 8, 2013 at 18:31

"As I've written documents over the years, there are times when I use an apostrophe S, and it seems like I'm supposed to use an apostrophe S. But I have to say that my grammar is not strong enough to tell you right now with clarity when an apostrophe S is used." - Chris Crawford — jball, Jul 8, 2013 at 18:44
@bad_coder yes but it's status-completed so I don't see why it needs an answer. — Robert Longson, Jun 30, 2022 at 12:33
@RobertLongson ups sorry, this was discussed with the mods and they agreed a solved question is still better if it has an answer than not because that way it doesn't pollute the search results as unanswered and gives a visual solution of what things look like. (Of the 12,7k status-completed only 400 are unanswered so I thought I might take a few.) Also a recent Q was received favorably, and it's how the rest of the site also works. — bad_coder, Jun 30, 2022 at 12:52

This has been fixed and the sentence is now written using the possessive form in the help center, as shown in the screenshot:
