As per
WP:MOS, "The Manual of Style ... is a style manual for all Wikipedia articles." The Signpost is in the
Wikipedia namespace, not the (Main/Article) namespace (see
WP:PRJ). As
WP:ARTICLE states, "Disambiguation pages, templates, navboxes, user pages, discussion pages, file pages, category pages, help pages and Wikipedia policy pages are not articles." Therefore WP:MOS does not apply. Furthermore, the Signpost is a newsletter, and necessarily employs a different style. Even the methods for the Wikikpedia namespace are different at the Mediawiki level; for instance, external links are represented differently than in the (Main/Article) namespace.

P.S. I use the {{pulled quote}} liberally in the Signpost, but at the same time, if I encountered it in an article, I would be among the first to make an edit converting it to a quote template that did adhere to WP:MOS.
