Description
Template for inserting the possessive ' (apostrophe) character.
Syntax
{{'}}
Sample output
The ''Hyperion''{{'}}s good fortune produces: The Hyperion's good fortune
Notes
This template is used primarily for the insertion of non-italicised possessive apostrophes which follow an italicised a word. The most common use case is related to the names of vessels, which are italicised according to the traditional style.
If this template is not used, two problems can arise: (1) The addition of the extra apostrophe may break italicisation and/or bolding, due to the apostrophe's use in wiki mark-up for formatting; and (2) the ship name can 'run into' the apostrophe due to the fact that the name is italicised but the apostrophe is not.
This template avoids both problems. The second problem is solved by the addition of a small (1px) margin to the left of the apostrophe.
The {{`}} template is identical to this one, except that it does not include the added left margin. This makes it appropriate for the opposite use case — writing italic apostrophes after a non-italicised word.
