Unwritten policy and the intent of the average amateur ...

Do you see one which is close to say "rec.radio.amateur.new-licensees?"
Or, "rec.radio.amateur.license.help?" "rec.radio.amateur.recruitment?"
No, you will not find a one. Sorry thing .
The first two would fall under rec.radio.amateur.misc, unless there was
adequate demand to justify creation of a sub-group, which there isn't, from
what I've seen.
Help could be many things, if you needed antenna help there is a group
called .antenna, if you wanted homebrew help you could ask in .homebrew.
..misc is the "catch all" for discussions which are not applicable elsewhere.
Since there is next to zero discussions concerning new licenses or help in
..misc, we can only conclude there is zero demand for such a group.
The 3rd probably isn't relevant at all, since you're not very likely to do
much recruiting on USENET. Google Amateur Radio and your first hit is the
ARRL.
