Inconsistent use of "undelete" and "restore"

When a post has been deleted, it shows a notice explaining its situation:

![A deleted answer showing in red](https://meta.codidact.com/uploads/bscc0nccleh9qybvvcm6lyc4bnls)

This notice says:

> Users with the Curate privilege may vote to **undelete**

(emphasis mine)

However, the button below the post to reverse deletion is called "Restore".

Should we consistently use one term, either "undelete" or "restore" throughout the interface?
