I have added a link to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Code_of_Conduct from the footer. We are probably covered by it anyway (Wikimedia Cloud being a technical space), it's certainly better than not having any code of conduct, and there is an ongoing process for a Universal Code of Conduct for the movement - once that comes into existence, it would make very little sense for us to pick a different code of conduct. So I suggest that people interested in debating what should and shouldn't be in the code of conduct should focus their energies on that discussion - currently it is happening at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Draft_review
