    Withheld, older than the rules it backs

    This WV reference text was published 2021-10-15, before the 2026-08-31 date Ratify holds for the rules above it, so Ratify withholds it rather than printing superseded language beside current fields. It returns once the source is re-pulled and re-graded.
