Line 7:

This template sets the font for its argument to one which is likely to support special symbols. The argument is specified using [[Html_characters#HTML_character_references|HTML character encoding]], either in decimal (e.g. <tt>&amp;#123;</tt>) or hexadecimal (e.g. <tt>&amp;#xA9;</tt>). Examples:

* {{code|<nowiki>{{unicode|&amp;#x22CA;}}</nowiki>}} -->  → {{unicode|&#x22CA;}}

* {{code|<nowiki>{{unicode|&amp;#8906;}}</nowiki>}} -->  → {{unicode|&#8906;}}

* {{code|<nowiki>{{unicode|&#8906;}}</nowiki>}} -->  → {{unicode|&#8906;}} (this may look trivial, but could be helpful in some browsers)

or

* {{code|<nowiki>{{unicode|&amp;#x22C9;}}</nowiki>}} -->  → {{unicode|&#x22C9;}}

* {{code|<nowiki>{{unicode|&amp;#8905;}}</nowiki>}} -->  → {{unicode|&#8905;}}

* {{code|<nowiki>{{unicode|&#8905;}}</nowiki>}} -->  → {{unicode|&#8905;}}
