From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Thank you for your response. I've read the pages you linked to, but I'm sorry to say they did little to answer my questions.

I know very well the differences in spelling between British and American English, as well as the fact that in British English, honourifics do not use periods.

The specifics of what I'm asking are below:

  • Which is proper:
    • "The Doctor is a tall, old, and smart man."
    • "The Doctor is a tall, old and smart man."
  • Which is proper:
    • "Trust me. I'm the Doctor."
    • "Trust me. I'm the Doctor".
  • Which is proper:
    • Missy is the Master (TV: Dark Water).
    • Missy is the Master. (TV: Dark Water)

The specifics of my questions have to do with the placement of punctuation in lists, quotes, and citations. I notice this is inconsistent across this Wiki's articles, and I also have experience on other Wikis where arguments have broken out over what is the right way to format things. I'd like to avoid negative interactions with users here as often as possible, so before I go around messing up articles unintentionally, I thought I'd ask what was right.
