The Ombudsmen Committee exists to give outside opinions on disputes that have arisen within Wikipedia. Their main aim is to look back on disputes and give recommendations how these disputes could be handled better in the future. They also aim to investigate the root cause of these disputes so it can be identified where a common problem changed into something that got out of control. The committee would act to give a third opinion, but in meta issues rather than article space.
