That’s actually something that varies from country to country.

It’s always bothered me when writing technical documentation, that I would put the period or the comma outside of the quotes (since that’s what my English teachers always told me) but I am quoting something very specific which does not include the punctuation mark.
But when I’m not writing tech docs, I try to follow that “rule.”
