This page lists the procedural bylaws of the Inquisitorius for posterity and quick reference.
Procedures
- If a nomination has outstanding objections for more than a week from a nominator who has not edited in more than a month, and if no one else has displayed a willingness to adopt the nomination, the nomination may be removed after one week of idleness.
- Nominations that exhibit strong evidence showing that the nominator has no inclination to work on the article during the review process will be candidates for the "nonsense nomination clause" and may be removed short of the stipulated two-week idle period with a consensus of three Inq support votes. This consensus of three support votes may alternatively be obtained from present users in IRC, in which case a note will be left on the FAN page that the nomination has been removed via Inq consensus.
- It is the responsibility of the Inq who added the {{Inqapproved}} template to a successful nomination to archive that nomination within the next 24 hours.
- As standard, Inqmoots will be held at 2:00 PM ET. All Inquisitors are expected to respond to the meeting page's attendance section.
Review quota
It is the expectation that every Inquisitorius member review at least one Featured article nomination every two weeks. A review is defined as either 1) a support vote or 2) at least one new objection. Inquisitorius members are exempt from this quota only if they have the {{Vacation}} tag on their userpage. Failure to meet this quota will result in a strike given to the offending Inquisitorius member.
Paperwork and meeting-scheduling duties
Paperwork and meeting scheduling are assigned to one Inquisitorius member at the conclusion of each meeting. Both duties must be completed within one week after the last meeting. Failure to complete the meeting duties will result in a strike against the offending Inquisitorius member, as will failure to participate in a meeting, either through attendance or absentee notes.
The following table lists the assigned paperwork duties for upcoming Inquisitorius meetings.
| Meeting | Meeting 130 | Meeting 131 | Meeting 132 | Meeting 133 | Meeting 134 | Meeting 135 |
| Member | Imperators II | Master Fredcerique | Shayanomer | Supreme Emperor | Xd1358 |
Strikes
Strikes can be given to Inquisitorius members if they fail to adequately carry out their duties. This may include failing to meet the Inquisitorius review quota, complete meeting paperwork, or participate in a meeting (see above sections for more details). After accumulating two strikes, the member will be placed on membership probation, with potential removal from the Inquisitorius upon a third strike. Each individual strike will expire three years after it was given.
Current strikes
- Master Fredcerique: 1 (Issued August 21, 2021)
- Supreme Emperor: 2 (Issued September 7, 2019 and February 23, 2020)
