This is exactly why policies and rules to consider /should not/ be on the same 
page. I'll go ahead and split this up next weekend if there are no 
complaints.

"No personal attacks" /is/ a policy because it is already stated at  
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikiquette which is a clear policy

attacks page is, is a longer discussion of that particular part of the 
policy.
