Editing ISO/IEC 8859-15 (section)

==Coverage==
ISO 8859-15 encodes what it refers to as "[[Latin alphabet]] no. 9". This character set is used throughout the [[Americas]], [[Western Europe]], [[Oceania]], and much of [[Africa]]. It is also commonly used in most standard romanizations of East-Asian languages.

Each character is encoded as a single eight-bit code value. These code values can be used in almost any data interchange system to communicate in the following languages:

'''Notes'''
{{Notelist}}

===Coverage of punctuation signs and apostrophes===
{{See also|Latin-script alphabet}}

For some languages listed above, the correct typographical [[Quotation mark#Table|quotation mark]]s are missing, since only «, », ", and ' are included.

Also, this encoding does not provide the correct character for the apostrophe, and oriented single high quotation marks, although some texts use the spacing grave accent and spacing acute accent, which are both part of ISO 8859-1, instead of the 6-shaped/9-shaped quotations marks or apostrophes (and this works reliably with some font styles, where all these characters are displayed as slanted wedge glyphs).
