Use the following template for a nicely presented post:
{{Forum post|Write your message here!|~~~~}}
Try this: Type "Player" (without the quotes) into the main search box at the top of any wiki page and wait to see how many titles it suggests. Then type the apostrophy on your keyboard, making the search term "Player'" and see how many titles disappear from the suggestion list. I think this will happen regardless of which brand of computer you use, but I don't have my MacBook handy to try it.
I propose using the 7-bit ASCII apostrophy (Unicode U+0027 -'-) for all plurals and possessives in article titles so that searching will always return the correct results. The right quote is really intended to be paired with the left quote around a passage of text.
What do you think, sirs?
Pages can be moved back over the top of previously moved pages, even if there have been subsequent edits.
As an aside, we ought to have a policy to make the use of standard keyboard characters official.
As another aside, you should be using the û character in Faerûn which is easy to type or to copy/paste from somewhere. We have redirects in place for when people search for Faerun without the special character! ;)
