This is such an underrated point. When your rules are buried in a wiki, people genuinely can't find or understand them, so they just post and hope for the best which means way more removals and modmail for you to deal with. The clearest most accessible rules always create the least moderation headaches. I mean seriously I've clicked on some rules that are just written like legal documents.

I fall under this category.

I tend to default to a common sense style commenting when it comes to rules, If I see it in the sidebar, then I'll know that will exist, but I'm definitely not someone who goes out of their way to try to find rules.
