Hi,

As you may or may not have heard, there's a long process of adopting a Universal Code of Conduct ("UCoC") for all Wikimedia platforms. You can read more about it here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Universal_Code_of_Conduct

One of the things that are being discussed now is how will this Code of Conduct be enforced. A proposal under discussion is here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Revised_enforcemen...

It's a very long page, and you don't have to read it all if you don't want to, but there is a part in it that seems to me to have a certain non-obvious relationship to the Langcom. It recommends a list of people who should explicitly confirm their adherence to the Code of Conduct once it's ratified (section 2.1). The current suggestion is Board members, Wikimedia Foundation staff, Wikimedia affiliates staff, their representatives, and Wikimedia trademark users.

On the talk page there, I suggested that the Code of Conduct should also be confirmed by people who request to create new wikis. Here's what I wrote: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Revised_enfor...

Perhaps some of you want to express their opinions there (and feel free to disagree with me, of course).

Thanks! :)
