Wikipedia:Codes for keyboard characters

Wikipedia information page From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page lists codes for keyboard characters, the computer code values for common characters, such as the Unicode or HTML entity codes (see below: Table of HTML values"). There are also key chord combinations, such as keying an en dash ('–') by holding ALT+0150 on the numeric keypad of MS Windows computers. The HTML codes can be used where a literal character would cause confusion, such as using code "[" or "]" to show the left or right square bracket ('[' or ']'). Some editors, upon seeing a single bracket '[' at a word will edit a page to put double-bracket '[[' as thinking a single bracket must be an obvious typo, but an HTML code of "[" is likely to resist tampering.

This is an information page.

It is neither an encyclopedia article nor one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines; rather, its purpose is to explain certain aspects of Wikipedia's norms, customs, technicalities, or practices. It may reflect differing levels of consensus and vetting.

Shortcuts

Note that only common codes are shown here, among the 249,000+ characters already allocated for the Unicode character set's 1.1 million possibilities.
