 | This is an essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article, nor is it one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community. Some essays represent widespread norms; others only represent minority viewpoints. |
Silence does not imply consent when drafting new policy pages. To lessen the chance of instruction creep, a policy or a guideline proposal must be exposed to, and discussed by, a broad community of editors.
