===Successfully ignoring rules===
Most of the time when editing Endmyopia Wiki, you don't really need to know what the rules are. Just [[EndMyopia:Be bold|be bold]], use common sense and you should be fine.
If you do "break" a rule – knowingly or unknowingly – another editor may explain to you which rule you broke. If you find the rule sensible, you will understand why the other editor suggested it should be followed. If you do not see the sense in it, however, you should explain why you disagree with it. Other editors will in turn respond, and with some luck, a sensible approach will eventually be adopted, which may involve ignoring the rule, following it, or taking an alternative approach that resolves the dispute to everyone's satisfaction.
