Description
Outside of spam, many people will post notes that are deleted because they don't follow the rules and is a waste of people's time.
Maybe adding a JS modal before submitting to ask the user to confirm it follows the notes posting rules and redirect people to the proper bug reporting channels might be worth it?

Add a confirmation step that points users to the note rules and appropriate bug-reporting channels, then verify that compliant submissions can still proceed and that the modal addresses the listed deletion reasons.
