Rather than specifically making and refining rules for every specific case that could arise, if the rules that would normally pertain to something are ambiguous or lacking something, an editor should use his or her best judgment in what the community would want and ignore those rules. That's not to say that editors should ignore consensus and act unilaterally, but rather than wait for a consensus to develop for a minor variant of policy, do what's best for Knowledge.
