...something we ourselves invented and applied.

We're writing an encyclopedia here. We're working for the convenience
of our readers and editors. We're not attempting to work on a giant
self-consistent logical proof; we're not writing a legal system or
playing a game of nomic. If a "rule" for articles conflicts with the
sensible thing to do for the encyclopedia, we ignore the rule.

I am amazed people fall over themselves to comply with constraints
that simply don't matter.
