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 {{'s}} 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 {{'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.
