Hello EmilyWilson2. Welcome to Wikipedia! Just wanted to drop a quick note about quotation on Wikipedia since there seemed to be some confusion at
Bolsheviks and
Talk:Killing of Harambe. In short, the policy at
MOS:LQ says: 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.
This may be different from the style you are familiar with, but it is nonetheless the one that Wikipedia follows. Feel free to respond here if you have any questions. Cheers.

Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in
Mount Rushmore. There is a
Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you.

Please stop. If you continue to use disruptive, inappropriate or hard-to-read formatting, as you did at
Roald Dahl, you may be
blocked from editing. There is a Wikipedia
Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason.
