Punctuation
Actually, punctuation goes inside quotations. It's improper to put "this", although it may seem appropriate. Just wanted to point this out so you'd know for future edits. By the way, we appreciate your edits! :) 01:33, 4 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks! Well, I know this isn't Wikipedia, but they have a policy called "logical quotation" which means it only goes inside the quotes if it's part of the quote. The style where it goes inside regardless is called "typesetters' quotation" I think. I think logical quotation is much more sensible because it's less ambiguous - take this example: Type "RUN," then press "ENTER." do you see the ambiguity? Should you type the comma? No, of course not, but leaving the comma outside eliminates any possible confusion. Avengah 01:39, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, you're a Wikipedian! Good to know! Yeah, they've got some policies over there that we don't and vice versa. 02:01, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry to butt-in here, but it really isn't as simple as, "Always put punctuation inside the quotes." There are certain situations where this is appropriate and others where it is not. Take a look here for more information and you'll see what I mean. So it's not really policy so much as it is English... =) 03:45, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
