If something is in quotes, and it ends in a comma, the comma should be outside of the quotes. It looks cleaner that way

1. THEY ARE QUOTATION/CITATION SIGNS/MARKS, NOT «QUOTES».

2. FINAL PUNCTUATION GOES INSIDE IF IT IS A CITATION; OUTSIDE OTHERWISE.

How can anything end with comma? Unlike exclamation and question marks, comma is part of punctuation that surrounds the quotation.

if the comma isn't part of the quote it shouldn't be enclosed within the quotation marks
