Gah! Enough with these stupid euphemisms!
"Voting" has changed to "finding consensus", but the process remains the same. User conduct regulation is called "dispute resolution", but focuses mainly on finding a pseudo-judicial basis to ban troublesome editors. The pseudo-judicial body that bans troublesome editors is called the "arbitration committee", even though they're prohibited from actually carrying out arbitration by their official charter.
Exactly. Rebranding doesn't change a thing. The problems remain. Let's change it to "Articles for Reorganization" just for the fun social interaction.~~~~Pro-Lick
