==Overview==
These rules are designed to ensure updates and synchronization of Society and kingdom handbooks within reasonable timelines, minimize effort and duplication, and allow for local kingdom customization.
===Applicable policies===
#Changes to the Society Marshal's Handbooks must be approved by the Board of SCA Inc. as the handbooks are Society Officer Policies under Corpora.
#As per Corpora, kingdoms are allowed to define additional requirements, standards, conventions, marshals, or types of authorization (such as weapons forms) as they deem necessary.
##Kingdoms are not allowed to reduce or disregard the requirements and standards delineated in the Society Marshal's Handbooks without a variance from the Society Marshal that is approved by the Board of SCA Inc.
##All kingdom additions and changes must be submitted to the Society Marshal or the appropriate Deputy Society Marshal to check for conflict.
#The official and authoritative versions of these rules are the PDF versions held at [https://www.sca.org/resources/document-library/#marshal www.SCA.org / Documents].
##The online versions serve as a resource for easy online access for reference, and the wiki engine provides the content management system for PDF editing and cross-handbook version control. Updated versions of handbooks, once approved, are downloaded as a PDF for record keeping.
##Change logs for each version are included with each update, and also archived online.
