:This duplicates the sentence directly below {{tq|RFCs for deprecation, blacklisting, or other classification should not be opened unless the source is widely used and has been repeatedly discussed. Consensus is assessed based on the weight of policy-based arguments.}} Having the same sentiment twice is not going to get editors to read it, extra clutter just means that editors are less likely to read the header at all.
:This is especially true when the edit notice that appears when you start a new section has an even blunter sentence stating that you shouldn't open an RFC. So I don't see how stating it for a third time is going to have anymore impact.
:Instead of duplicating the whole thing would highlighting the pre-existing sentence be a better option, see example [[User:ActivelyDisinterested/temp|here]] (the formatting still needs work, it has issue on some screens). -- <small>LCU</small> '''[[User:ActivelyDisinterested|A<small>ctively</small>D<small>isinterested</small>]]''' <small>''«[[User talk:ActivelyDisinterested|@]]» °[[Special:Contributions/ActivelyDisinterested|∆t]]°''</small> 01:06, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
