The use of quotation marks in the Guide was not consistent, so I tried to apply the following rules to improve this:

  • Single quotation marks for names and special characters.
    (mostly when used for the first time in a section, or when specifically referring to it as a name or special character.)
  • Double marks for emphasis of regular words/sentences or actual quotes.
  • Punctuation outside of marks unless part of original quote.

If different or extra changes could be of value here, I'm happy to help. 👍
