Yes, and it may be possible to have enough social support for netiquette
without resorting to written policies and enforcement procedures. I'd like
to think that this is true, but given examples about problematic activities
like personal attacks, I'm not sure. Is informal social pressure combined
with occasional admin or IRC op action enough to deal with those
situations, or do we need something more formal?

The thread you are replying to contains both examples of unfriendly
behaviour in a technical context and discussion over the direct
applicability of the friendly spaces policy; reviewing it may be a
good idea.
Oliver, I must be a little blind but I do not see examples of unfriendly
behaviour in this thread.
In general, Matt, I do experience that the wikimedia movement is
criticized having too many rules and policies. Add another one does not
help. At the end of the day your target group is code contributors, not
policy readers. If somebody does not behave and not contribute, the
person
is easily shut up. If somebody contributes a lot,
some diplomacy is
required. What you do here is, imho, an example of an organization busy
with itself. I won't be angry if you stop this thread and delete the wiki
page. Let me add, I really appreciate and find very valuable all the
other
technical contributions and discussions. And
Matt, of course I appreciate
that you know what you are talking about beeing software and Wikipedia
content contributor.
Best,
Rupert
