1. If you want your PR to be merged in a timely manner, please [enable repository maintainer permissions on your pull request](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/working-with-forks/allowing-changes-to-a-pull-request-branch-created-from-a-fork#enabling-repository-maintainer-permissions-on-existing-pull-requests).
This allows the maintainers of the RWS repository to resolve merge conflicts on your behalf. Without this permission, the maintainers must wait for **you** to resolve any conflicts before they can merge your PR, even if it is otherwise passing the checks. This will delay your submission; maintainers will not revisit your PR until the next regular review.

Per the Submission Guidelines, approved PRs will be manually merged in batches to the canonical RWS list once per week (Tuesdays at 12pm Eastern Time).
