It's at the very top of:
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia%3AManual_of_Style
I thought it was clear that any MoS page depended from that top-level page.
I quote:
New contributors are reminded that clear, informative and unbiased
writing is always more important than presentation and formatting.
*Writers are NOT expected or required to follow all or any these rules*:
the joy of wiki editing
<http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Editing_policy> is that
perfection is not required. Copy-editing wikipedians will be referring
to these pages when weeding
<http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Weeding_Wild_Wikipedia>, and
pages will be gradually made to conform with this guide.
