 * If a PR is related to an issue, adding `Closes #1234` in the PR description

+### Merging Pull Requests
+
+Most pull requests can be merged once a single 
[committer](https://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works/#committers) other 
than the author is satisfied with the code in the PR. Before merging all review 
comments should be addressed either by making changes or agreeing the request 
is out of scope for the PR. For additions to public APIs committers should wait 
at least 24 hours before merging to ensure there is no additional feedback from 
members of the community. [Committers are 
trusted](https://infra.apache.org/new-committers-guide.html#the-committers-way) 
to act in the best [interest of the 
project](https://community.apache.org/projectIndependence.html#apache-projects-are-managed-independently).
 If a committer feels there might be a conflict of interest with a pull request 
they review, they are encouraged to ask for another committer to review the 
pull request. 

Review Comment:
   I'm a bit late to this, but I also had the same question as Anton. In the 
end, maintainers have to use their best judgement but if we're mentioning 
"conflict of interest" in the guidelines, I think we should give a few examples 
to make sure there's a shared understanding of what that can mean.
