I have extensive experience with MediaWiki's RFC process and I can assure you
that you're mistaken. The steps listed on that page were added fairly recently
and are optional guidelines for how you might go about proposing a large change
to MediaWiki. But not every step is applicable to every RFC, obviously,
particularly smaller and more focused RFCs.

It certainly wouldn't hurt to send an e-mail to wikitech-l about these
implemented and proposed changes. That's one of the reasons the list exists.

> You are welcome to start your own RFCs and list yourself as author.

You're being needlessly defensive, childish, and stupid, but whatever.
