+=head1 NAME
+
+Perl::Critic::Policy::CodeLayout::RequireTrailingCommas - Put a comma at the end of every multi-line list declaration, including the last one.
+
+=head1 AFFILIATION
+
+This Policy is part of the core L<Perl::Critic> distribution.
+
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Conway suggests that all elements in a multi-line list should be
+separated by commas, including the last element. This makes it a
+little easier to re-order the list by cutting and pasting.
+
+ my @list = ($foo,
+ $bar,
+ $baz); #not ok
+
+ my @list = ($foo,
+ $bar,
+ $baz,); #ok
+
+
+=head1 CONFIGURATION
+
+This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
+
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+In the PPI parlance, a "list" is almost anything with parentheses.
+I've tried to make this Policy smart by targeting only "lists" that
+have at least one element and are being assigned to something.
+However, there may be some edge cases that I haven't covered. If you
+find one, send me a note.
