Andy

Just to be clear, what I am seeing is RFCxxxx in a Description clause in
a YANG module but not appearing anywhere else in the I-D, not in a
Reference clause or in the I-D Reference sections or anywhere.

e.g. in draft-ietf-dhc-dhcpv6-yang
 leaf uuid {
            type yang:uuid;
            description "A Universally Unique IDentifier in the string
representation
                defined in RFC 4122.

4122 appears in three such Description clauses but nowhere else; I am
thinking that it should also be in a Reference clause as well
