+==== Deprecation of sparse vector fields
+The `sparse_vector` field type has been deprecated and will be removed in 8.0.
+We have not seen much interest in this experimental field type, and don't see
+a clear use case as it's currently designed. If you have feedback or
+suggestions around sparse vector functionality, please let us know through
+GitHub or the 'discuss' forums.
