The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

Thank you ...
[edit]...for fixing that mistaken erasure of most of a page. I thought I was doing a simple "undo" of a block evader, but somehow it rubbed out almost everything. In fact, I did it on 2 different pages, with the same result. I thought I knew how to use the "undo". Now I'm not sure. :( ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 05:31, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
