Hey everybody,
just a quick note to give you some news about the Universal Code of
Conduct,[1] and the consultation we're currently having on Wikidata.
First of all, WMF Board of Trustees officially approved the draft of
the UCoC last February 2,[2] making it into an official policy that
will apply to all Wikimedia online and offline activities, as a
baseline of do's and don'ts that we all are expected to follow (and in
many cases we already do that).
The text was slightly amended in order to fix some potential
confusions. Please refer to [3] if you want to see what has been
changed.
Secondly, but not less important, it's time for the second round of
questions about the ways of implementing the Universal Code of
Conduct! This time, the questions will focus on the reporting
system.[4] I tried to better formulate the questions, but please
remember that I have to be as much general as possible in formulating
questions.
As I said for the first round questions,[5] there are *other* aspects
that will be taken into consideration in the next two rounds, but if
you think something's missing, please do bring it up in the
discussion! Be bold and have your say! Also, if you haven't answered
the first round questions, go give them some love. ;)
As always, if you have questions or doubt, please contact me via email
or on my talk page or intervene on the UCoC consultation page.
Cheers,
Luca Martinelli [Sannita]
