[RW] Okay. I agree that having the structure conform to RFC7843 makes sense. I was sort of thinking of something more like section 6 from RFC 7483. E.g., the text could provide an example error response something like: { "errorCode": 400, "title": "FieldSet 'unknown-fieldset' is not a valid FieldSet" "description": [ "Supported FieldSet values are 'a-valid-fieldset' and 'another-valid-fieldset'." ] } Probably this should only be returned if the request was otherwise valid. And, I agree that the server could also choose to return valid links as part of notices. Do you think that it would be helpful for the document to elaborate beyond "Optionally, the response MAY include additional information regarding the negative answer in the HTTP entity body."?
