Misplaced Pages has many rules. Instead of following every rule, it is acceptable to '''use ]''' as you go about editing. Being too wrapped up in rules can cause you to lose perspective, so there are times when it is better to ]. If you '''use common sense''' when editing, you are unlikely to do anything wrong. |

Even if a contribution violates the precise wording of a rule, it might still be a good contribution. Similarly, just because something ] is not forbidden in a written rule doesn't mean it's a good idea (e.g., ]). The ''spirit'' of the rules is more important than the letter. |

Invoking the principle of ] on its own will not convince anyone that you were right, so you will need to persuade the rest of the community that your actions improved the encyclopedia. A skilled application of this concept should ideally fly under the radar, and not be noticed at all. |
