This is probably an issue with the fonts supplied with your web browser (computer, phone). Not every font includes the symbol as it is so rarely used. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 17:22, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

interrobang in chess[edit]

In chess annotation ?! and !? are very different. The former means dubious; the latter means interesting. See, e.g., https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_annotation_symbols Rrafw (talk) 21:12, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The hatnote mentions that but I have added a brief note to the chess notation section as a 'see also'. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 01:14, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
