Right. If there was a text on a page for admins where it is written
"Even Quran says you should behave so and so", okay, I wouldn't bother
that much. But distributing it via Sitenotice, and so flagging it
"official" (remember, visitors do not know that these sitenotice is
editable by admins, they could think that it is an official statement
of e.g. WMF) is quite another thing imho
