You can make it three: mine says:

   This memo adds no new IANA considerations.  The presence of this
   template text indicates that the author/editor has not actually
   reviewed IANA considerations.

and there's similar text for internationalization and security.

I wouldn't call it ad-hoc; it's part of an IESG-generated document on
the official IETF web site, and it also has been documented for quite

instructions2authors.
