> the punctuation goes inside the quotation marks if it is part of the quotation.
So do you add a full stop after the quote marks with a quoted question?
Mav asked Faldage if he would "add a full stop after the quote marks with a quoted question?".
He did this because he believes it marks the reductio ad absurdum of this apparently logical approach... "If only," he remarked quietly, "punctuation was that logical - I did not just speak a comma or a dash!"
