=== Advanced parameters ===

These parameters are used to customize links and poll dates. If you don't need customisation, and [[Template:Arbitration Committee candidate/data]] is up to date, you should be able to leave most or all of these parameters blank. Note - in this section, the string <code>''YYYY''</code> refers to the year specified by the {{para|year}} parameter.
