::::::I agree about using the neutral version of '. | |||
::::::We've noticed that when we use the ', it can sometimes break links in forums on places that dont know that ' can be a part of the URL ([https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#safe=off&q=links+break+with+apostrophe google search]). For that reason we try to use ' in the URL as little as possible. For example [http://wikiislam.net/wiki/Mistranslations_of_Quran_67-5], or [http://wikiislam.net/wiki/Uthman_and_the_Recension_of_the_Quran]. For this reason I favour not keeping the ' in the URL but it can be shown on the page heading itself (not a problem). The reason why it appears in the category is, its generated automatically from whatever text is used on the page (when we say <nowiki>[[</nowiki>Category:X]]). So i would say it looks good as it is right now. The %27 you see, is the browser transforming ' into an escape character. | |||
::::::Wikipedia probably uses ' in the URL and they break links all the time. I like looking at Wikipedia to see what they're doing and deviate if it makes sense. --[[User:Axius|Axius]] <span style="font-size:88%">([[User_talk:Axius|talk]] <nowiki>|</nowiki> [[Special:Contributions/Axius|contribs]])</span> 15:36, 5 June 2015 (PDT) | |||
