I really like that page - so well-written. "Use common sense. ...There is no common sense." In fact, the wikipedia pages about rules are much better written and more enjoyable to read than the average article is - which seems odd, but I guess is how it should be. There are a lot of very funny pages about the rules.[0] Many essays, on every aspect of wikipedia, here:
"If a rule prevents you from improving or maintaining Wikipedia, ignore it."

Some explanation of what it's meant to mean, with a selection of quotes about breaking rules:

(A lot of the titles and short explanations on that page are fascinating/funny, a great intro to wikipedia culture...as it should be.)
