Note on your first edit
I see that I've just reverted your very first edit here on Wikipedia... not a very nice welcome, I'm afraid. But I do want to encourage you to keep editing anyway. And if an editor (like me) does something you don't understand or disagree with, feel free to ask them about it on their talk page, or to start a discussion on the article's talk page.

In this case, what you appear to have added to Scansion was. In principle, this is exactly what should have been there. However, I've tested this character on many of the most commonly-used and extensive fonts, and none of them can actually display it. There are several second-best options, and depending on the context I will use one or the other. Depressingly, I've found the lowercase "u" is often the best, though in this particular case I favored a wimpy little regular.

Anyway, please don't let this put you off Wikipedia. Happy editing! Phil wink (talk) 02:49, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
