This template should not be substituted.
English Wikipedia has an article on:

This template uses the decimal code for the apostrophe or single-quote character. It is shorter than <nowiki>'</nowiki> or <nowiki/>' and is designed to be clearer than an unadorned &#39;. {{'}} and {{'s}} prevent apostrophes and single quotes from becoming mistakenly interpreted with adjacent bold (''') or italic ('') Wiki markup.

Usage

You type You get
'''Sara Bareilles'''{{'}} latest album Sara Bareilles' latest album

Technical note

When an apostrophe follows italicized text, {{`}} and {{`s}} can be used to additionally prevent the last letter of the right-leaning text from interfering with the apostrophe.

The templates {{'}} and {{`}} are used in the opposite manner compared to on Wikipedia: On Wikipedia {{'}} adds a space before the apostrophe and {{`}} does not, whereas on the Xenharmonic Wiki {{`}} adds spacing and {{'}} does not.

When inserting an apostrophe before a lowercase "s", it is recommended to use {{'s}}, as {{'}}s can be somewhat awkward. For example: '''John'''{{'s}} house
