Spacing
[edit]Thank you for your many small grammatical improvements. Per WP:SPACING, it's not normally necessary to remove extra spaces, because they do not appear when the wikitext is rendered. Indeed, some varieties of English prefer a double space at the end of sentences. Thanks again, Certes (talk) 17:44, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
- Hey, thanks for informing me on the fact that double spaces after full stops are automatically truncated. I'll keep that in mind when I edit pages in the future. Have a great day! :D WarmWooly (talk) 17:54, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for your efforts to make small grammatical improvements. However, per MOS:LQ, it's not necessarily an improvement to place punctuation within quoted text or titles. Per the guideline ""Include terminal punctuation within the quotation marks only if it was present in the original material, and otherwise place it after the closing quotation mark.
" Unless you definitively know that Aldous ended his quote, about the "way of the dodo", with a fullstop/period, then it shouldn't be inside the quote. And keeping it outside the quote covers both scenarios. In the case of the Davy/Irish Times text, the source material does NOT place the terminal period/fullstop inside the quote. And so your change, to move/place the punctuation inside the quote, is not consistent with the source or the guideline. Thanks. Guliolopez (talk) 20:27, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
