Mentorship Committee

FOR INFORMATION ONLY - PRIOCEDURE NOT IN PLACE
The Mentorship Committee is an informal, self-selecting, self-organised committee set up to mentor people put on probation or mentorship by either the Arbcom or the Wikipedia community. Those watched will be informed by us. A bot will be run in a channel on freenode to watch over the contributions of selected users. Our goal is to make ourselves a pool of available mentors, and to utilize a bot in #wikipedia-probation to watch over specific people. It is to be noted though that we are not every Wikipedia mentor, just as the Mediation Committee does not include every Wikipedia mediator.

Some ground rules

 * The purpose of the committee is to monitor and act upon an editor who is under probation.
 * Aside from whatever powers each member may possess (eg. if they are admins, they may independently block a user for an egregious edit), this committee has no actual power, and will take no actions: its role is to revert any objectionable edits a user on probation may make, and report these edits to ArbCom.
 * Probation is a privilege, as compared to being outright banned. If the same deeds are done which caused the probation, it shall be considered a blockable offense.
 * If the Arbcom assigns someone else mentorship, we will not interfere.
