Follow-up Comment #2, bug #59363 (project wget):

Dear Tim Ruehsen, you have suspected correctly.

[comment #1 comment #1:]
> You say that you expect --wait=N to wait N seconds *before* a retrieval !?

So the word *between* is not a mistake in documentation (my optimistic wish is
dashed).
I presume one condition that satisfies *between* is when it is recursively
downloading.

Since my command example does not satisfy the *between* condition, here is a
suggestion of wording of the documentation. I think it clarifies when
*between* condition is satisfied.
 -w,  --wait=SECONDS              wait SECONDS between retrievals
                                  (e.g. waits between recursive downloads when
-r is used)
