Quotation marks on Wikipedia

Hello Platosghostlybeard. A quick note about your recent edit on Hell of a Book: per the style guide entry at MOS:LQUOTE, Wikipedia uses logical quotation, which means that punctuation is only placed inside quotation marks when (a) the punctuation is part of the original quoted material, and (b) the quoted material is a full sentence, not a word, phrase, or sentence fragment. So in this instance, the original punctuation was correct. Ruбlov (talk • contribs) 12:42, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
