One Year Time Limits
I notice that Smidgen257 made several edits over recent months – which seem to ignore accurately sourced citations in previous edits. BBC and Guardian and other media state that the one year time limit rule in the Clergy Disciplinary Measure was the reason given for the bishops' dismissal of these complaints. This included Bishop Snow. So I’m not sure why Smidegn257 edited this information out? Guardian article states: "All five have contested the complaints because they were made after the church’s required one-year limit." and then later in same article: "However, under the CDM procedure, complaints must be brought within a year of the alleged misconduct. As Michael’s complaints fall outside this period, the church must first rule whether the complaints can be considered. The archbishop of York and the four serving bishops have contested Michael’s request to make a complaint out of time. Williamson, the retired bishop, and the alleged rapist have not contested the request, so these complaints will be considered." BBC states: "However his complaints, filed under the Clergy Discipline Measure, were deemed to have failed because the allegations were more than a year old. A request for extension of the one-year time limit was refused by the Church." Is is it agreeable to editors that this should be reinstated? Smidgen257 no longer seems to be on wiki, so I can't ask him/her.Joelionheart (talk) 14:23, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

National Safeguarding Steering Group
I also notice that Smidgen257 edited out reference to Snow's membership of the NSSG. This was accurately sourced and cited. To edit this out seems odd, especially in the light of interest in these matters at a time when the Church is under scrutiny in this field at IICSA. The National Safeguarding Steering Group has overall governance of the Church's safeguarding and response to survivors so it's an important group to be part of in the circumstances. I am proposing that this be reinstated with its references, one of which is from the Church of England website. It’s difficult to imagine that it would be inaccurate? If editors have no objection, I will reinstate.Joelionheart (talk) 14:23, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
