Outside. The comma is not part of the word quote "upstream".

Always inside if you are inside the United States. It is really that simple. There are no special circumstances.
Britain is different, so you may see the comma outside if you are reading something from overseas. Now, as for Ireland, I have no idea. |

Quote HistoryQuote HistoryHow you got inside from your link I'll never know. Look at the semicolon and the colon. They're outside. The only time the punctuation is inside the quotation marks is when the quotation marks signify someone speaking and their comment ends the sentence, therefore the ending punctuation (period, question mark, etc) goes inside the quotes. |

I always thought that if you are writing a whole sentence then it goes inside. When you are using quotes for one word then it goes outside.

I trust the people who are saying inside more overall, plus inside is what I was going with before I started doubting myself.
Going with inside. Thanks! |
