What's with the weird backslash character? [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 13:28, 20 April 2025 (UTC)

: Using ＼ (U+FF3C) instead of \ (U+005C) is an alternative method to display backslash (reversed solidus) reliably. In some Japanese fonts, U+005C is displayed as a yen sign (¥, U+00A5), as well as a won sign (₩, U+20A9) in some ~~korean~~ fonts. --[[User:Xenllium|Xenllium]] ([[User talk:Xenllium|talk]]) 14:17, 20 April 2025 (UTC)

:: Okay I get where you're coming from, but that's not an ''us'' problem. You can set the font in your browser to one that is compatible with Unicode. To the English community the full-width backslash is unheard of. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 15:15, 20 April 2025 (UTC)

Please don't mess with the backslashes on the wiki. Set the font in your browser. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 16:35, 26 April 2025 (UTC)

: NO!! I NEVER accept this suggestion!! Using tags such as <nowiki></nowiki> is indispensable for preventing backslashes to display as another character (such as a yen sign) despite font settings!! COULD you deal it!? --[[User:Xenllium|Xenllium]] ([[User talk:Xenllium|talk]]) 01:29, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
