When are spaces used with the SLASH SYMBOL, for example “Zen/Taoist”?
The slash symbol is generally used without a space before and aft. Chicago Manual allows for a space before and after the slash when one or more of the terms separated is an open compound, as in World War 1 / First World War and when showing line breaks in poetry. Please use a global search and replace to take out extra spaces except where separating compounds or lines of poetry.
