Petition to the moderators to tighten control about "is this rare" type of posts

The ratio of repetitive "is this rare" posts I have seen in this subreddit, compared to quality content is too unbalanced and not in the good way. When I have written the post title it seems that a menu popped up asking players to check the wiki first before asking if something is rare, and still, that seems like it's useless.

So I hereby make a suggestion. If someone asks if something is rare, and if that something has been asked before on this subreddit (for example baby zombie riding a chicken or chest loot) that post would be removed and the automod would warn them of the topic of the post being posted before. In my opinion this would improve the quality of the subreddit immensely, getting rid of repetitive posts by making people do the simple step they're often skipping: searching for an answer before asking.

I am not asking for upvotes at all, and I understand that some of you may not agree with my idea, and that's alright.

I know that there are people who upload quality content with us, whether it is redstone contraptions or great builds, and I congratulate each and every one of them. And I fear that, without proper control over done to death types of posts, those people will become more and more discouraged to share their work.

Thank you for coming to my "ted talk". Feel free to say what you think in the comments as I have specifically chose the discussion flair for this post.
