This situation most commonly arises when taking the possessive of titles that [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style (text formatting)#Italic face|should be italicized]]. &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{&#039;}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; is shorter than &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&#039;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; and clearer than an unadorned &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&amp;amp;#39;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;.<br /> <br /> This template leaves leading space before the apostrophe, unlike the similar {{tl|`}} (no spacing). This template is intended for use with &#039;&#039;[[Italic type|italic]]&#039;&#039; text, whereas {{tl|`}} is intended for use with non-italic text. For example:<br /> * &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;The &#039;&#039;Iliad&#039;&#039;{{&#039;}}s vocabulary is archaic.&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;<br /> generates:<br /> * The &#039;&#039;Iliad&#039;&#039;{{&#039;}}s vocabulary is archaic.<br /> with a tiny amount of space before the apostrophe to avoid colliding with the italic &#039;&#039;d&#039;&#039; at the end of &#039;&#039;Iliad&#039;&#039;. Conversely, {{tl|`}} should be used if the text is already italicized. For example:<br /> * &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&#039;&#039;The &#039;&#039;Iliad&#039;&#039;{{`}}s vocabulary is archaic.&#039;&#039;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;<br /> generates:<br /> * &#039;&#039;The &#039;&#039;Iliad&#039;&#039;{{`}}s vocabulary is archaic.&#039;&#039;<br /> without the extra space, which would be distracting here.<br /> <br /> This template is also similar to {{tl|-&#039;}}, used to slightly space apart a leading single quote from a surrounding double quotation mark provided by a template parameter in which the content is placed, e.g. the {{para|title}} parameter of {{tl|cite web}}. The equivalent template when manually placing double quotes around a single-quoted passage is {{tl|&quot; &#039;}}; see also {{tl|&#039;-}} and {{tl|&#039; &quot;}} for the right-hand side equivalents (parameter and manual, respectively). All of these templates use 0.2em of spacing, while {{tl|&#039;}}, this template, uses only 0.1em of spacing, as does {{&#039;s}}, which is used for possessives in italics.<br /> <br /> {{GFDL}}<br /> <br /> &lt;includeonly&gt;&lt;!--<br /> ++++ PLEASE ADD CATEGORIES AND INTERWIKIS BELOW THIS LINE, THANK YOU. --&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;/includeonly&gt;</div>
