"Bereshit" or "bereshith"?
The transliteration of בְּרֵאשִׁית was rendered "bereshit" from the beginning of this article until February 2021, when changed it to "bereshith". We have an article Bereshit (parashah) that lists some alternative transliterations, including "b'reshith", but the hebrew letter taw ת usually denotes a voiceless alveolar plosive /t/ rather than an unvoiced or voiced dental fricative. Muinn provided no references for their edit and have since been blocked indefinitely for disruptive editing. I believe we should revert to the original version of "bereshit".
