Putting dialogue next to people?[edit]
“Wow, that’s pretty far away. Is it warm over there?”
Ens. Katharine asked in her usual dense tone.
I'm wondering if I should put the dialogue that people say next to who said it, if it states it. For example, using the quote above: “Wow, that’s pretty far away. Is it warm over there?”, asked Ens. Katharine in her usual dense tone.
Would that be better for fluency, or would you rather keep it in it's original format, selkirk? --Piroko 23:36, 8 September 2008 (PDT)
