== Add exception to allow Unicode super/subscripts in COinS fields in {{tlu|cite}} templates? ==
 
Several fields in the various {{tl|cite}} templates ({{tl|cite book}}, {{tl|cite journal}}, etc.) generate [[COinS]] metadata. The documentation for these templates warn against using templates, HTML, or HTML entities within these fields, because raw HTML will get generated and pollute the COinS data. In these cases, the Unicode superscript/subscript entities should be allowed.
 
This doesn't happen very often, but sometimes appears in the <code>title=</code> field of journal citations in chemistry-related articles, when the journal entry is about a specific chemical or chemical formula. [[User:Sbb|sbb]] ([[User talk:Sbb|talk]]) 01:41, 23 March 2021 (UTC)
