That also rise the question of accessibility. Do anyone have a real UX feedback on how this kind of symbols are rendered with sound synthetizer and braille devices?

I like the Default (unspecified) fonts ↑ 100% bold but I partly question why we'd use a character at all rather than an SVG graphic we have more control over. It certainly seems overkill to use webfonts for this unless we're using an iconfont.

Most Wikimedia sites use the mediawiki default of an Arrow ↑ to backlink from citation-contents to the superscripted number/letter.
English Wikipedia changed the default in 2006, to use a caret ^ and a few dozen other wikis have copied that.
We'd like to examine the problems with the Arrow, to see if they can be fixed.
We need help browser-testing and diagnosing and fixing the problem(s).
This may have strong relevancy to the Typography Update in Beta Features.
