Template:'/documentation

This template just displays an apostrophe. It is used when an apostrophe would otherwise be interpreted as MediaWiki syntax. For example, suppose we want to display the following (copied from a quote at ):

Mutsu's magazine

Note that the apostrophe is not italicized. We could try to produce this using, but, because of the way the MediaWiki parser works, the first apostrophe after Matsu will be interpreted as an apostrophe, and the next two will be interpreted as ending the italics. So the apostrophe will be italicized. If, however, we use, then the first two apostrophes after Matsu will end the italics, and the apostrophe that is displayed will not be italicized.

This template does not take any parameters. It is implemented using HTML and CSS.
