Whitespaces (except for the ordinary space) are encouraged to be written in HTML codes because it is otherwise hard to know what they are. In general (this applies to both whitespaces and other characters) if HTML codes are used, names are preferred to Unicode code points. In general, if you do use code points, {{w|hexadecimal}} (base-16) is preferred to decimal (e.g. <code>&#x200A;</code> is preferred over <code>&#8202;</code>) for any code point with more than three decimal digits (e.g. <code>&#1000;</code> and above) because code points are usually shown in hexadecimal. | Whitespaces (except for the ordinary space) are encouraged to be written in HTML codes because it is otherwise hard to know what they are.

When placing [[Template:Stub]] on a page: always place the Stub template at the very end of a page's source, separated by two blank lines from whatever comes before (usually categories). | |||
When placing or using any template, read that template's documentation before placing it. All templates and their documentation can be found in [[:Category:Templates]]. | |||
