@wleisner @unamccormack @Scifibulletin Thanks, William. I googled and I *think* I got the answer. Looks like The Oxford Manual of Style? Hard to tell if that's the reigning authority or if there are others, though.

@ijk64 @unamccormack @wleisner @Scifibulletin Nah. I don't take sides on commas. But you don't wanna get me started on semicolons ... 😊
