' vs ’ in article name references[edit]

I absolutely prefer ' to ’ as an apostrophe character in texts on Wikipedia, but when referring to an article, shouldn't the actual name of the article be used? Even if it has a type error, spelling error or similar. Am I overly nitpicking? -- Henriok (talk) 06:28, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I presume that User:Citation bot is following Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Titles of works § Typographic conformity, which points to Wikipedia:Manual of Style § Typographic conformity (MOS:CONFORM), which says:

Convert apostrophes and quotation marks to Wikipedia's style:
- These should be straight, not curly or slanted. See § Quotation marks.

That section of the MOS should also cite Wikipedia:Manual of Style § Apostrophes; they both say that straight, not curly, forms of those punctuation marks.

If that's what the bot is doing, the right place to discuss that is on Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Titles of works.

If that's not what the bot is doing, and it's changing those characters due to an overzealous interpretation of the MOS, the right place to discuss that is on a page such as User talk:Citation bot. Guy Harris (talk) 07:00, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
