            <title>[DOCS-12972] Misleading statements on arbiters</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/DOCS-12972</link>
                <project id="10380" key="DOCS">Documentation</project>
                    <description>&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;Description&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Description&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The documentation of arbiters has this misleading sentence: &quot;Arbiters participate in elections in order to break ties.&quot; &lt;a href=&quot;https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/add-replica-set-arbiter/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/add-replica-set-arbiter/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This fuels a widespread misunderstanding that elections can only be decided if there&apos;s an odd number of participants, or that an arbiter is always necessary to decide any election, both of which is not the case. The sentence should read something like &quot;Arbiters participate in elections just like full data-bearing nodes, so they can be used in situations where setting up a regular node is not feasible or desired.&quot; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;Scopeofchanges&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Scope of changes&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;ImpacttoOtherDocs&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Impact to Other Docs&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;MVP%28WorkandDate%29&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;MVP (Work and Date)&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;Resources%28ScopeorDesignDocs%2CInvision%2Cetc.%29&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Resources (Scope or Design Docs, Invision, etc.)&lt;/h2&gt;
