Whether or not the guidelines were regurgitated into the bug report has no 
bearing on if a valid and quality review was done.  None whatsoever.  All it 
does is say "this person copied/pasted some content from a wiki page, and 
possibly filled in some blanks".  It does not prove or disprove that the 
reviewer actually LOOKED at the package in question.  There is no way to tell 
that, without video proof of the review.  You have to trust your reviewers, 
and spotchecks go a long way toward that.  Just pasting content does NOT help 
the problem.
