] '''Oversight changes'''
My section heading was incorrect and misleading. Apparently some feel that the perp should be in the list, as was done in articles like Sandy Hook and VA Tech, and Mateen is listed at the end of the prototype box. I don't particularly care one way or the other, but I would hope we could avoid a big debate about it. Assuming he stayed, what would your suggested box title be? My rationale for the single word was "don't state the obvious", but I can see the view that it's awkwardly terse, and I'm flexible on that point.

] '''Arbitration'''
Hello EGF, I just wanted to take a minute to say what a nice catch that was, recognizing the pattern of what turned out to be the mixed result of a Wikibomb event. I think you and the others involved in the ANI discussion are handling the matter in just the right fashion needed in order to attempt to maintain those new volunteers while also cleaning up the content that is not policy-consistent. The truth is, we really need new editors, not just in general, but in this area in particular. So I hope you manage the clean up while encouraging, rather than discouraging, those new potential editors--and I think you are all approaching the matter in exactly the manner which gives the best chance of that outcome. Anyhow, if not for the fact that I am exceptionally busy this week, I'd like to offer a hand with that important effort, but I figured at the very least I could give a shout-out/show of appreciation.
