Colleagues: During today's Maturity Model teleconference we noted the value of cleanly marked up HTML. I even mentioned APA Co-Chairs are considering whether we might want to design and adopt a cross-platform tool that would help us enforce certain styling--which is why I've cc'd this email to the APA Chairs list! I mentioned I have a bookmark that helps me when I'm editing. It's actually a W3C resource available here: https://www.w3.org/wiki/Common_HTML_entities_used_for_typography Note that this does not reference elements such as <q> and </q> for "smart" quotation marks. I would note further from my personal experience that sometimes simple CSS rules can help. In recent years I used CSS to mark quoted text in dark red in order to keep my colleagues from trying to edit our quotations! Yes, we can quote, quote less, or quote more; but we can't edit what we quote from another publication. One would think that would be obvious, so I tried to make it obvious where those quotes were. hth!
