 | {{Template}}
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | Older version of the Encodefirst template from wikipedia.
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | This template replaces the first character of the argument with its HTML entity if it is one of four wiki markup characters <code>:</code> <code>;</code> <code>*</code> <code>#</code>. This can sometimes fix the issue in which a character may be processed as though it were at the beginning of a line.

 | == Usage ==
  |  | 
 | <pre>{{Encodefirst|<string>}}</pre>
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | == Examples ==
  |  | 
 | The output looks like the input whether a character is replaced or not.
  |  | 
 |    |  | 
 | <pre>{{Encodefirst|*Lisp}}</pre> produces: <pre>{{Encodefirst|*Lisp}}</pre></noinclude>
