Is there really a point in this? We're not typesetting newspaper. Plus, template:`s is simply equivalent to Template:` + s, no? —[[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 20:50, 26 January 2026 (UTC)
Is there really a point in this? We're not typesetting newspapers. Plus, <code><nowiki>{{`s}}</nowiki></code> is simply equivalent to <code><nowiki>{{`}}</nowiki>s</code>, no? —[[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 20:50, 26 January 2026 (UTC)
: I made <nowiki>{{`s}}</nowiki> since I thought <nowiki>{{`}}s</nowiki> was a little awkward compared to having them together.
 
: Also, placing an apostrophe after certain letters, such as f or T, can cause the apostrophe to interfere with the letter. Compare:
:: ''f''{{'s}} (<code><nowiki>''f''{{'s}}</nowiki></code>, no space)
: and
:: ''f''{{`s}} (<code><nowiki>''f''{{`s}}</nowiki></code>, with space)
: I know we're not typesetting newspapers and whatnot, but I think this little tweak is worth it. [[User:ArrowHead294|<math>\overrightarrow{\,\,\scriptsize\text{ArrowHead294}\,\,\,}</math>]] [[User talk:ArrowHead294|(speak to me)]] 00:40, 28 January 2026 (UTC)
 
:: Yeah, but the <code>s</code> in <code><nowiki>{{`s}}</nowiki></code> is semantically meaningless for the markup language and is part of the content text instead. —[[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 05:25, 28 January 2026 (UTC)
