Oversight audit request, October 2019

On 16 October, the Arbitration Committee received a request from User:DeltaQuad to review her suppression of revisions of User talk:Ritchie333. The committee has investigated the matter in our audit capacity for the use of oversight on the English Wikipedia. We note that after the suppression in question was queried, DeltaQuad initiated a discussion on the oversight mailing list. A consensus was reached that the suppression should be reversed, to which DeltaQuad agreed. The committee is satisfied that this resolved the matter and that DeltaQuad acted in good faith in accordance with the oversight policy. We thank her for her diligence in self-reporting the potential misuse and seeking the opinions of other members of the oversight team.
