Warning
titleCaution

 Do not create a new rule or recommendation by making a copy of an existing one and removing and replacing old content. That method causes problems:

  • You might inadvertently copy erroneous formatting and sectioning.
  • You might accidentally keep content from that rule or recommendation that doesn't belong with the new one.
  • You may not get all of the standard sections for the new rule or recommendation if the old one did not include that section.
