I've proposed some very common sense code of conduct principles here:

This list is getting lots of participation so I think it's a good time to agree on some basic behavioral principles. If you have things to add, please add them, if you want to discuss, please use the discussion page.

Thanks! Erik

Thanks Erik! All common-sense guidelines for sure.

Maybe we need a special rule for this mailing list: after every five posts you have to take a break, step away, and try to convince a woman you know that they should be contributing to Wikipedia. After they make their first edit, come back to the mailing list... :)
