CJK quotation marks
[edit]At their talk page, I have advised user:~2025-31563-08 that they cannot keep trying to assert that U+3008 〈 LEFT ANGLE BRACKET and U+3009 〉 RIGHT ANGLE BRACKET are valid entries in the infobox. There is nothing at Quotation mark#Chinese, Japanese and Korean to support their assertion that angle brackets are valid quotation marks in Japanese or Korean. In fact it says that they are not quotation marks (but rather that they are used to identify book titles). It may be that, because angle brackets can be invoked easily from Android, that some people have adopted them as quotation marks but that is not good enough. So, until they can back it up with a WP:RS, their change will keep being reverted. Unless of course someone else can help them out with an RS citation? 𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 20:09, 8 November 2025 (UTC)

Use of Quotes...
[edit]
Moved to Wikipedia talk:Manual of StyleHebrew quotation marks
[edit]The page is in error - the standard closing quote is not on the bottom of the line. The Hebrew academy* shows it on the top of the line. My mother tongue is Hebrew, and I've never seen a Hebrew text closing a quote with quotation mark on the bottom of the line.
