Bleach Wiki:Policy & Standards Committee

The Bleach Wiki Policy & Standards Committee is a group of users responsible for assisting with the creation of and quality checking chapter summaries for Bleach manga volumes and episodes for Bleach anime arcs. The committee also has the responsibility of maintaining the quality standards of Bleach Wiki articles by helping other users adhere to the policies of the wiki.

Committee Members

 * Chairperson: Tinni ( talk ) - Presiding Officer of the Committee. Project leader of the Volume Summary Project.
 * 2nd Seat: Minato ( talk ) - Project leader of the Anime Summary Project.
 * 3rd Seat: =Vacant= (position yet to be filled)
 * 4th Seat: =Vacant= (position yet to be filled)
 * 5th Seat: =Vacant= (position yet to be filled)

Committee members are also supported by the admin in the regards to their duties whether it be Bleach Official Policy or taking part in the creation of summaries.

It is generally advisable that people other than committee members not post on this page unless it is to ask questions about policy, point out mistakes, etc. having to do with the volumes, episodes, or user edits. The "Comments and Discussion" section below is where these issues should be posted.

Member Responsibilities

 * Regularly assist in the committee projects
 * Quality check the work of committee members and non-members who participate in committee projects
 * Quality check the recent edits to articles, especially articles identified as high risk
 * Quality check articles in general
 * Assist members with edits and other issues
 * Roll-back vandalism

Membership Qualifications
The criteria for selecting others require that the interested party have be weekly active user of the wiki with a sizable number of edits, but more importantly, their edits are of good quality and useful. Good spelling and grammar is a must, and they should be able to get on reasonably well with others as having rollback rights should not be abused due to overzealousness. While anyone can be nominated to be considered for open positions, it is the admin who will discuss whether the person should be given the position.

Membership nominations
Please feel free to nominate either yourself or a fellow wiki user you believe should be given committee membership and roll-back rights in this section.


 * + Dear Admins. I have been looking for other users who might be qualified for the Third Seat position on the committee and my first pick for the position is Kisukeiscool. I have spoken with him about becoming a Lieutenant and he has agreed. So I am nominating him for the position of Third Seat on the Policy and Standards Committee.

Policy Procedures

 * The committee members are bound to the support of the official policy. Thus, they maintain articles by ensuring that users make good faith edits otherwise they are entitled to undo or revert those edits.
 * Committee members warn members if they are violating wiki policy.
 * For users that engage in blatant vandalism or repeated offense of policies, the committee members can bring those users to the attention to the admin, in the event the admin are not aware of the issue.

High-Risk Articles
The following are articles which are frequently edited to alter one aspect of it that segments of Bleach wiki users disagree with but cannot put forward a convincing enough reason to change permanently. A clear reason must be given before adding articles to this list and a clear reason must also exist for why some edits to the article should always be reverted.


 * Espada: This page is frequently editing to alter the status of Tia Harribel (deceased to unconfirmed) and Grimmjow (unconfirmed to deceased). Wiki position is that Mashiro saying Harribel is dead is more proof that she is most likely deceased when we have nothing to counter Mashiro's words but the hopes of fans that Harribel is not dead. Wiki position on Grimmjow is that he was last seen breathing and until we know for certain he is no longer breathing, he is to remain unconfirmed.


 * List of Arrancar: In addition to Tia Harribel and Grimmjow, the list of Arrancar suffer continous edits to the statuses of many other arrancar from unconfirmed to deceased. The full reason for why most of them should remain the way they are has been given many times and are collected in Deceased vs unconfirmed.


 * Numeros: Is another page that has many conflictions between Deceased and Unconfirmed. The characters to watch for are Tesla and Harribel's Fraccion.

Comments and Discussion
Just sending a call out for more contributors for this weeks volume for the Volume Summary Project. This week we are doing Volume 7, The Broken Coda. I have already done four of the chapters, Twocents has claimed one chapter but there are four more chapters to do. So if anyone has the time to do a chapter summary. It would be really appreciated and not to mention help us meet our deadline. So please consider contributing a summary. Thank you. Tinni 01:36, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
