 * Communicate with the offending party, informing them of the infringement and asking them to correct it. The infringement should be noted on the discussion page of the appropriate article.
 * After a negative response, or 2 days, they may revert or remove the offending item.

If these measures do not work then an administrator should be contacted with the following information supplied:


 * The article, discussion or talk page involved.
 * The enforced policy that has been infringed.
 * The nature of the infringement.

Decision taking
The committee will take decisions on the basis of a majority vote.
