I tried that, pasted it over, and I'm getting the gibberish characters. I'd also like to put a few frequently used words on the template.

In 1.4 this text has been changed from HTML-text to Wiki-text for security reasons, which means that you cannot use JavaScript any more. Instead, you should now use <charinsert> </charinsert> -pseudo-tags. See http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Copyrightwarning&act... for an example.

Hello all,

        I'm trying to update the copyright warning on [[ang]] to include the ability to insert special characters, and using simply the letters inserts gibberish, and using the html code simply inserts the html code.  I'd like to use:
