It is no magic
*yearly reelection of administrators/sysops has meant no bullying types
are sysops any more
*we are a small community with just a few hundred active. And we have
decided to treat everyone (who are serious) as valuable individuals,
and go a very long way to make all feeling welcome, stop behaving as
overdog/underdog and also to try special solutions for troublesome users
that enable them to not being blocked but having restrictions on certain
type of activities. Both people who have temporary maniac periods and
with autism symptoms can be useful contributers if handled right by the
communities.
But these experiences can not be extended to everywhere. en:wp have 20
times the number of contributers then sv:wp and of course this means
need of different ways of handling problems. I do not pretend to have
anything to teach en:wp, but as said I find nothing useful for sv:wp
hearing of the challenges on en:wp
