Oct 25, 2017 at 19:39 comment added Fabian Röling How does one quote this question? (Related: "Is it possible to use RegEx to parse this answer?" stackoverflow.com/a/1732454/6743127)
Oct 9, 2015 at 7:08 comment added Dewi Morgan The problem with anything other than the first option is that if you then quote those, into a third level of siccing or beyond, then you will be required by poetic imperative to quote it as "...suppose I write a letter from me [sic ad nauseam] to you."

May 11, 2011 at 14:16 comment added Mitch @e.James: the obvious motivation...why can't copy editors be more like engineers, quoting and escaping more logically? Quoting should be assumed verbatim always and therefore '[sic]' unnecessary (but of course there are problems with this...what if there is a transcription error?). For example when quoting, you should include the punctuation of the original -inside- the quote, and additionally punctuate your sentence that is employing the quote, no double usage.
