Description Siebrand Mazeland 2006-11-30 13:18:45 UTC
The word '''asilo p''e bammine''''' or [[WiktionaryZ:asilo p''e bammine]]''
exists and it can be found as
[http://wiktionaryz.org/WiktionaryZ:asilo_p%27%27e_bammine
asilo_p%27%27e_bammine]. It is one place where MediaWiki sucks.

Comment 1 Philippe Verdy 2007-05-07 20:16:22 UTC
Use true apostrophes, not ASCII quotes...
ASCII quotes are not true orthographic letters, although there's minimum support for use of them as 
orthographic apostrophes.

One question: in which language is such expression used? This is not indicated on the referenced page, 
which is completely empty, and looks just like a test page.
I have the feeling that if such expression really exists, theses are not even quotes or apostrophes, but 
some form of click or glottal stop, and so this is the wrong character, just approximated here by a 
tweaked quote.
Comment 2 Aryeh Gregor (not reading bugmail, please e-mail directly) 2007-05-08 01:45:42 UTC
The problem apparently arises in the [[Neapolitan language]].
Comment 3 Siebrand Mazeland 2008-04-01 12:28:37 UTC
WONTFIX. The proper unicode character should be used.
