We really do need '' as normal chars and not to initiate text written in italics ... we must be able to include this in a wiki link in some way and also in a category link ... is there a way to get a different tag for that - something like <apostrophs> </apostrophs> or whatever?
Just out of curiosity, what's the linguistic background to this? I'm presuming nap. is the Napoli dialect/language? And by browsing the site a little, it looks like single apostrophe (') occurs at both the start and ends of words (Chist' and 'a), as well as in the middle (p'o). It also seems that you can have an apostrohpe-final word followed by an apostrophe-initial word (Pe' 'ssapé, ncopp' 'e). Does the double apostrophe ('') have a different meaning from that - ' '? If not, would a work around simply be to add a space there (category:Comune d' 'a Campania)?
Note that all of my examples actually came out of the stub template! :)
