Do not edit pages to remove blue links. If the link is to a page that has an oddly nasty attitude that's at odds with the tone of the rest of the story, that page needs to be edited, not left hanging in limbo. --Platypus 12:22, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
"Thanks, youngster. That was exactly what I needed," she grins.
This is properly punctuated, although some might say that you can't grin your dialogue.
"Thanks, youngster. That was exactly what I needed." She grins.
This is also properly punctuated. The grinning has been changed from a dialogue tag to a separate action.
"Thanks, youngster. That was exactly what I needed." she grins.
This is not punctuated properly and it is not acceptable. If the grinning is a separate action and not a dialogue tag, then she is the first word in a sentence and must be capitalized.--Platypus 11:27, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
