:: The baseline is fine in my terminal font, and the baseline problem only manifests in the browser. In any case, if the font is problematic, that's the font's problem, not our problem. Notionally the blocks should have the same baseline, and I'd much rather have a solution that will be correct after they fix the fonts. (Or fix the font aliasing algorithm, which may be what's really going on here.) --[[User:TimToady|TimToady]] ([[User talk:TimToady|talk]]) 07:57, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

:::Yes, it's the font dealiasing that is doing it. Changing the page's font size up and down moves the fuzz from the bottom to the top, and to different characters. So trying to pick the "right" characters is an exercise in futility, because what's right for you will be wrong for someone else. So just use the eight characters that are supposed to be right, and ignore the baseline issue. --[[User:TimToady|TimToady]] ([[User talk:TimToady|talk]]) 08:02, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
