1@/DamaMomus is a sockpuppet account for @/LadyMomus. I created it so I could keep my edits on the English portion of the wiki separate from the Spanish namespace. (Also, so I could have a "To Do" list and a Watchlist specifically for Spanish tropes.) If you want to contact me, PM my @/LadyMomus account.

3Included on this page are notes I made to myself that help me with typing and editing Spanish.

32''Smart quotes are an abomination unto the LORD and should be removed on sight.'' - @/{{Micah}}
33
34Ever run into odd symbols in the middle of text? Well, this can happen when [=copying/pasting=] text from a Word Processor into a page on the Wiki. Non-English characters, smart quotes ("curly" quotes), and punctuation marks are the main culprits.
35
36Here are the original symbol(s) and the corrected symbol. Or at least, the ones I've figured out. Ones I'm not 100% sure on have ** beside the entry.

114'''Some other weird character problems I've run into:'''
115� is mangled code that can be pretty much ''any'' character. (Thanks to @/{{Random832}} for that info.)
116
117The band name ''Allsång på Skansen'' displayed as ''Alls? p?kansen''. The "å" (ALT+0229) ended up displayed as a question mark with the two letters after it being erased.
118
119The phase "The Dutch band ''Blöf'' always" became "The Dutch band ''Bl?''lways." Again, "ö" (ALT+0246) was replaced with a question mark and the next two characters erased.

130If you want to vandalize my page, this is the place to do it.
131
132---Note � can be ANYTHING. It's the mangled code of that "question-mark-in-a-diamond" that stuff sometimes turns into.
133->Thanks for the info. :) I fixed it above.
