Our sonarqube instance has ~182 rules that are deprecated and active.

Rules are marked as deprecated when they are no longer believed to provide value or when some rules are re-organized (case of merge or split of rules).
Generally the rule is replaced by a new one and the replacement rule is documented in the deprecated rule’s description.
Disabling all deprecated rules will reduce false-positives.

AC:

• All 182 deprecated rules should be disabled
