This template allows quick entry of an apostrophe and lowercase "s" using the decimal code for the apostrophe or single-quote character. When taking the possessive of titles, {{'}} and {{'s}} prevent apostrophes and single quotes from becoming mistakenly interpreted with adjacent bold (''') or italic ('') Wiki markup.

Technical notes
When an apostrophe follows italicized text, {{`}} and {{`s}} can be used to additionally prevent the last letter of the right-leaning text from intersecting the apostrophe.
The templates {{'s}} and {{`s}} are used in the opposite manner compared to on Wikipedia: On Wikipedia {{'s}} adds a space before the apostrophe and {{`s}} does not, whereas on the Xenharmonic Wiki {{`s}} adds spacing and {{'s}} does not.
