== Usage ==<br />
The {{tl|" '}} template (or {{tl|Double+single}} in long form) is for use at the beginning of a 'single-quoted' quotation that also begins a "double-quoted" quotation (or a double-quoted passage that begins with an apostrophe). Its purpose is to slightly space the double and single quotation marks apart for legibility, without actually inserting a space character. It does this with [[Cascading style sheets|CSS]], and does so because the insertion of an extranous space character of any kind would be a violation of the [[Semantic web|semantic integrity of the web content]] of the article or other page in which it appeared.<br />
<br />
;Example (with highlighting added for clarity):<br />
<br />
*Using the template:<br />
<br />
:<code>Gonzales added, <span style="color:Green;"><strong><nowiki>{{" '}}</nowiki></strong></span>Interesting times' is quite a euphemism for this chaos."</code><br />
<br />
:Gonzales added, {{" '}}Interesting times' is quite a euphemism for this chaos."<br />
<br />
*For comparison, here is the completely unspaced version:<br />
<br />
:<code>Gonzales added, <span style="color:Red;"><strong>"'</strong></span>Interesting times' is quite a euphemism for this chaos."</code><br />
<br />
:Gonzales added, "'Interesting times' is quite a euphemism for this chaos."<br />
<br />
*And here is the version with a semantically incorrect non-breaking space character:<br />
<br />
:<code>Gonzales added, <span style="color:Red;"><strong>"&amp;nbsp;'</strong></span>Interesting times' is quite a euphemism for this chaos."</code><br />
<br />
:Gonzales added, "&nbsp;'Interesting times' is quite a euphemism for this chaos."<br />
<br />
:When rendered, the non-breaking-spaced version looks similar to or the same as the template version, but improperly mixes content and presentation.<br />
<br />
The equivalent template when used inside a template parameter that automatically provides double quotes (e.g. {{para|title}} in {{tl|cite web}}) is {{tl|-'}} ([[Template:Space+single]]). See also {{tl|' "}} and {{tl|'-}} for the right-hand side versions (manual and parameter, respectively).<br />

<br />
This template is used to place the square brackets <nowiki>[[</nowiki> onto the page. This is usually done to mitigate the conflict between template syntax and wikilink syntax; in other words, to put complex parser functions inside of the brackets of a wikilink. It is mirrored by {{t|))!}}, which will place the closing square brackets ]] and complete the wikilink.<br />
