Sometimes, apostrophes may collide with certain characters such as lowercase dTemplate:-'s and lTemplate:-'s, especially after bold or italic text. This template is the same as {{'}} except that it inserts a small amount of space before the apostrophe to avoid such collisions.

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]
This template should not be substituted.
English Wikipedia has an article on:

Sometimes, apostrophes may collide with certain characters such as lowercase d's and l's, especially after bold (''') or italic ('') text. In these cases, {{`}} and {{`s}} can be used to prevent such collisions. This template is the same as {{'}} except that it inserts a small amount of space before the apostrophe.

Technical notes

This template does not insert any semantically invalid whitespace characters, but does all the spacing visually only, in CSS.

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: The ''Iliad''{{`s}} vocabulary
