Pilcrow

Marks a paragraph. Proofreaders use it to flag paragraph breaks, word processors show it as the hidden formatting mark for a return, and legal citations use it to point to numbered paragraphs (¶ 12), doubling it for several (¶¶ 12–14). Set a non-breaking space between the sign and the number in citations.
