I just encountered an interesting problem. The
article on Michael

How do I italicize "Fahrenheit 9/11" without italicizing the "s" in
the possessive (since that's not properly part of the title)?
''Fahrenheit 9/11''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s
Yeah, it's ugly, but there's no way to cleanly work around it with the
'' and ''' syntaxes short of special-casing /\S'''s/ and
similar.
A similar problem is often encountered on fr, where they want to write
l'foo where foo is the title of the article and hence should be bold,
without bolding the apostrophe. One solution is to use HTML-style tags,
i.e. l'<b>foo</b>
