Anyone who tries to rules-lawyer "Ignore All Rules" has missed the
point by a new record.
Well hopefully that has killed off the codified constitution suggestions.
Actually the claim is rather questionable since it used a definition
of wikipedia from [[Wikipedia:Five pillars]] rather than [[WP:NOT]]
(the two conflict).
However since direct citation of IAR is itself mearly a rather poor
form of rule layering it seems only fair that an attempt be made to
rule lawyer around it.
No I understand IAR I just object to people citeing it rather than
putting forward a logicaly solid but outside rules argument. Do that
well enough and people are unlikely to bring up rules in the first
place.
