Parameters

{{Punctuation marks in Unicode/row}}
{{Punctuation marks in Unicode/row-pair}} -- for pair Ps-Pe (brackets); Pi-Pf (quotes)
cp = code point, hex. Determines Character as shown, Name, anchors. Use normalised "000A" (uppercase) notation.
link = link to article, will link from (first) name
gencat = Generic Category, Px by list definition
script = Character script property
style = large → double cell height, for example § 104C: .၌
technote = maintenance info: is pair, is unbalanced pair, is vertical pair
For pairs (Pi-Pf quotes; Ps-Pe brackets)
Use {{../row-pair}}
cp2 = second code point
gencat2 = second generic category (expected: Pf or Pe)
script2, link2 are not present
{{Punctuation marks in Unicode/row
| cp       =
| link     = <!-- name wikilink -->
| gencat   =
| script   =
| style    = <!-- =large -- for Javanese etc.: double cell height -->
| technote =<!-- maintenance info -->
| cp2      = <!-- ../row-pair| -->
| gencat2  = <!-- ../row-pair| -->
}}

Note: |char= is for checks only, might be removed later on.

Anchors

  • All marks are anchored twice: U+00B6, &#x00B6; (= as entity value and as character)
cp=00B6 → § U+00B6, [entity &#x00B6;] § ¶, char [¶]: § ¶
Template:Punctuation marks in Unicode#U+00B6
cp=2995 → § U+2995, entity: § ⦕, char: § ⦕
Template:Punctuation marks in Unicode#U+2995
cp=2996 → § U+2996, entity: § ⦖, char: § ⦖
Template:Punctuation marks in Unicode#U+2996
When possible, notation U+00B6 is preferred (first code point of a pair). This resaults in nicer arrival (top of tablerow)
