But OTOH it does mention "well established in jargon", so you might have
a point here.
Francois what is your preference here? You do allot more spell
checking than I do, so we will go with 'dereference' if you fell its
suitable.
From the page pointed to by Andreas:
dereference
<programming> To access the thing to which a pointer points,
i.e. to follow the pointer.
This is exactly what is meant in the cheat sheet so this is the term to
use.
