Thank you. The only way that Websters’s could be correct is if the person’s first name is Websters, and that seems unlikely. Examples:

cmpApi: 'iab', Hi, Wendell. The club has changed its rules. Is this incorrect? Reading the above discussion on the name Webster, I am assuming James’s shoes to be correct, but I was recently told this was incorrect. It has, however, taken quite some time out of my afternoon as I have trawled through the comments below the immediately required information. Those three little letters cause a lot of confusion, but once you master a couple of basic rules, the choice becomes simple. params: { { bidder: 'triplelift', params: { inventoryCode: 'Cambridge_MidArticle' }}, { bidder: 'ix', params: { siteId: '195467', size: [300, 250] }}, Perhaps if enough people contact them about the error they will fix it.

I know it’s is the abbreviation of it is. An apostrophe is a type of punctuation mark. Its use, now: Its”s is used correctly if you are contracting the sentence: “its’ is never correct.”. Thanks Lynn. Oh, my…never its’, hmm? The “Rule 2” of Apostrophes referenced in our response of December 18, 2012, to Maddie was part of the 10th edition of The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation.

I’m 52, not a writer and knew all of those…although it is nice to be reminded of the rules now and then. If it is third person singular is it ok to use it in a sentence where it means a child?

Again, as long as you do not change the speaker’s intent, it’s fine to do an editing clean-up.
Why not compare “its” to “his”? Its _____ is green. Katie and Beth, I think there is an option in the grammer setting in Word to avoid the use of contractions. Please, I need more clarification on this sentence ” it’s well explanatory ” or “its well explanatory”. bidderSequence: "fixed"
