How can I insert symbols into my article, like the communist symbol Tom Mayfair has or the O's with the 2 dots over 'em? Don't know what they're called. • • • Necropaxx (T) {~} 23:34, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

You mean an Ümläüẗ? There's keyboard shortcuts to do that I think. But what I always do is go and find one in the text somewhere and copy and paste it in. And if you're looking to dig up diacriticals, Ümläüẗ ïŝ ấ ĝööḑ þļäḉë ẗö ṧẗäṟẗ! Or dig a little deeper and go to Wikipedia:Diacritic, like I had to do for some of those letters. -- (but) Untrue  Whhhy?Whut?How? *Back from the dead* 00:27, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

Or use the character map, and copy from there. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 01:07, 25 Jul 2007
