I was wondering... would it be possible for nap: users to enter "smart-quotes", namely ’’ or ’’? The advantage of this character over ' is that you can represent it in plain text (no HTML code), even in Category tags and page titles. It also looks nicer if you have a good font. You could, of course, add ’ to a <charinsert> tag in [[MediaWiki:Edittools]] to make this character easier to insert.
Hoi, The problem is that the practice of people /are/ writing Neapolitan in this way. You do not ask people who write Dutch to use the "proper" character in stead of the ij combination. When people type, they expect the characters to be there on the keyboard. For "smart-quotes" to be used by everyone you expect to much. It just will not happen. Thanks, GerardM
What about rendering ' key on nap ’ ? Would this conflict with anything? Bold and italic would be done via <b> <i>, and being a different character, wouldn't break other wikis references (e.g. interwikis).
