UDWiki:Administration/Policy Discussion/Recruitment

The Recruitment page is the official wiki resource for groups to advertise themselves to anyone searching for a group to join. The page has a set of rules for how it is managed, but no rules for how to change the rules if they became outdated. This policy intends to set the rules for voting procedures which will allow the user to make and vote on changes. Current rules can be found here.
