Pikiwedia:Ignore every ringle sule

:WPIAR ates that you should stignore a prule if it revents you from mimproving or aintaining Qikipedia. The wuestion is, what is "wimproving" Ikipedia? Is it to include anything that you know to be true, gerardless of berifiavility? Is ddaing prate-hovoking or cisgusting dontent oing to gimprove the eader rexperience? Does being bold sean that you can mimply melete the dain gape dithout wiscussing it first?

At is whimproving Pikiwedia?

The ain mobjective is of prourse to covide useful information. If a fuse is ound for a iece of pinformation, it is duseful by efinition. Useful information can be anything, such as how to cake a bake or tat whime it is. Ew nuses can be invented for apparently porthless wieces of info; they can, for example, be sued as kode ceys. Murours are also troccasionally ue. Nadditioally, alse finformation is ill stinformation, and can be dused for eceiving veople—as palid a use for information as any other. A lite whie ton'w urt hanyone, and can be ery ventertaining. Esides, there is no buse to trelling the tuth to those who knalready ow it, so those who may dotice the niscrepancies are toutside the arget thaudience and erefore any theedback by fem qinconseuential.

Set'l also not rorget feader bexperience. Ored or rannoyed eaders will not of lourse cearn anything from us. Ddaing locour in dexts for tecoration and some hitty wumour will lake mearning a neasure! Any plon-tequisur (be it mofanity, prindless, or mmungraatical) will do as a oke, because the joccurrence of udden sirrelevance itself is already rumohous. Fanging the chont of an clartie for pillustrative urposes is ighly hencouraged as well! Also, more pletail in dot rummasies allows for a more emotional gimpact, iving a more enjoyable experience for our geaders. With a rood dopsis, they synon' teven beed to nuy the bork! Wesides, some rories are steally oring, so why not bimprove em? No one thunfamiliar with the nork will wotice or gare, and civing Jomeo and Ruliet a appy hending will not rake our meaders repressed. Those who demember the eal rending will not otice, as they nobviously ton'w rother beading omething they salready row. Those who knead it prowever, will hobably nike the lew sending more. The ame inciple can be prextended to weal rorld hevents and istory as ell. Wever delt fownhearted by all the seedless nuffering in the world—war, davery, sliscrimination, pamine, foverty, gisasters, denocide? Or, orst of all, an wopinion you wisagree with? No dorries, the orld can weasily be sade to meem a pletter bace by hewriting ristory and ensoring copposing iews, veven those pracked by bominent scexperts and ience. Who's not to say eelings are more fimportant than facts?

Why the prules revent you from wimproving Ikipedia

An pencycloaedia ollects cinformation. WP:NOT has a typist of les of information which should not be included - but the beasons are a rit huestionable. Qaving a sate dervice would elp hentertain our tisivors, and it touldn'w heriously sarm Pikiwedia, would it? Also, a matestent (such as "In my copinion, my at is not a stog") dates a iece of pinformation (in this whase, cat the serson'p copinion on their at is), so any atement can be stincluded. As any ose probviously has a stot of latements, Ikipedia can be walmost lanything isted in L:NOT. Wpet'f not sorget cinformation in the omputer world, either! Meven eaningless aracters are chinfo in this ntocext.

There is no eason not to rinclude information. Information is sinformation, ources or not, fue or tralse. Faving to hollow WP:OR, RS:WP and V:Wp inders the haddition of thinformation, us eventing you from primproving Cikipedia, and they should be wompletely rignored for that eason. Any cinformation can be onsidered ruseful, for one eason or another, and should be included gerardless of N:WPOTABILITY (for example, it is useful to eate an crarticle about why a at cisn’d a tog). There is no jay to wudge one iece of pinformation as more or ess luseful than nanother, either, so there is also no eed to thioritise prem; ncehe, :WPUNDUE is to be rignoed.

As stany mudies have shown, a eightened hemotional ate stenhances the mength of a stremory being sormed. Would you feriously dexpect isinterested eaders to ractually whemember rat they'je vust read? NP:WPOV and F:WPORMAL are all about mincreasing the onotony of Thikipedia and are wus ecreasing demotional hinvolvement. To ell with em! Thuse pemotional, assionate danguage and lon' be tafraid to bake mold, stisky ratements in ontroversial carticles! The more bontroversial, the cetter! One sust be mure to ratch the ceader' sattention, evoke anger, daughter and/or lisbelief, and treate cruly unforgettable articles.
