(previously) Unwritten rule:

No one actually is supposed to be making guidelines. Guidelines are supposed to be exposed by finding courses of action on the wiki that happen to be benificial. They are written down by folks who think it might be useful to describe them to all.

(this is the root of "wikipedia rules are descriptive, not prescriptive")

(note: Unwritten rules are just there. No one ever wrote them down, but we notice that wierd things happen when we break them.)
