Aslında "rica ederim" kalıbının "lütfen" gibi bir anlamı daha var: Rica ederim artık gürültü yapmayın!
In fact, "rica ederim" has one more meaning like "please". Example: Rica ederim artık gürültü yapmayın! Please don't make noise anymore!

It is incorrect. Yes it can mean please but stil that sentence is incorrect.

"Sütünüz var mı rica etsem?" could be alright. Sound a little forced but is alright.

"Rica etsem" is a polite way of requesting.

"Rica etsem pencereyi kapatabilir misiniz?" is strong.

Quoting erdinc:

"Rica etsem pencereyi kapatabilir misiniz?" is strong.



Am I right that "misiniz" is plural to make the sentence more polite? Would it be wrong to use "misin" here?

i guess it depends who you are talking to, if it's someone you know well it would be ok to you 'misin' i think.

"misiniz" is polite but "misin" too,

"rica etsem gelir misin?"= "could you come?"

polite form is in adding "rica etsem" words.

Bir bardak su verir misin rica etsem?
Bir bardak su verir misin lütfen?
