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. This template is the same as {{'}} except that it inserts a small amount of space before the apostrophe to avoid such collisions.

The templates {{'}} and {{[[Template:<|<]]}} are the opposite of the ones on Wikipedia: On Wikipedia {{'}} adds a space before the apostrophe and {{[[Template:<|<]]}} does not, whereas on the Xenharmonic Wiki {{[[Template:<|<]]}} adds spacing and {{'}} does not.

Usage

You type You get
''Z''{{`}}(''x'' + ''y'') Z'(x + y)
The ''Illiad''{{`}}s vocabulary The Illiad's vocabulary

Technical note

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

When inserting an apostrophe before a lowercase "s", it is recommended to use {{[[Template:<s|<s]]}} instead. For example:
