*Background *
The Universal Code of Conduct https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Universal_Code_of_Conduct (UCoC) provides a baseline of acceptable behavior for the entire Wikimedia movement. The UCoC and the Enforcement Guidelines were written by volunteer-staff drafting committees https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Drafting_committee following community consultations. The revised guidelines were published 24 January 2022. For any questions or concerns, please contact UCoC directly at ucocproject@wikimedia.org
Regards, Rajene Hardeman WLUG Steering Committee Chair 2022
