Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not: Difference between revisions

[[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not/Outtakes|Wikipedia is not a lot of other things as well]]. We cannot anticipate every bad idea that someone might have. Almost everything on this page is here because somebody came up with a [[WP:Most ideas are bad|bad idea]] that had not been anticipated. (See [[WP:BEANS]]—it is, in fact, <em>strongly discouraged</em> to anticipate them.) In general, "that is a terrible idea" is always sufficient grounds to avoid doing something when there is a good reason that the idea is terrible.
