Does this answer your question? Unfortunately, the accepted answer is incomplete and lacking support. It's also wrong in common US style, where the period is normally always inside the closing quotation mark. Only in UK style is the period commonly outside, unless the period is part of what's being quoted. Where should the period be put when an entire sentence is quoted at the end of a sentence? – Jason Bassford Aug 19 '20 at 03:10
