=== Usage ===
* The box is aimed at Unicode-related pages. Guidelines do [[Wikipedia:Navigation templates|recommended]] not to create a box with numerous entries, like with names of 165 Unicode-blocks.
=== MeaningUnicode terms used===
* A '''block''' in Unicode is single continuous group of codepoints, e.g. [[Miscellaneous Symbols Unicode block|Miscellaneous Symbols Unicode block]] with range U+2600–26FF. Unicode has defined and named blocks. It is well allowed to define overlapping or sub-blocks, like Unicode Chess Symbols (U+2654-265F) withing the Miscellaneous Symbols block. A block can include undefined codepoints.
* A '''script''' is related to ''speech'' (like the alphabet), '''symbols''' are related to their ''meaning'' (like chess-symbols). Symbols also include controls and Unicode-specials like [[Byte order mark|Byte order mark(BOM)]]. All defined Unicode characters are either in a script or a symbol.
