I was trying to adapt such policy for technical spaces for two years, It is serious issue and it happens a lot, If it didn't happen to you, that doesn't mean it's not happening or doesn't worth being addressed. I'm working to adapt a CoC for pywikibot if this one fails [1] If you think it needs more work to be a feasible policy, I think so too, let's discuss on the talk page but if you think we don't need such policy, you are entitled to your opinion and that doesn't mean you are right. I feel we have this long discussion because some people from WMF is working on the CoC and there is the spirit of "Since WMF did the superprotect, it hates the community" between us.
I just want to point out to so many CoCs that big tech communities have and remind us importance of the issue. * contributor-covenant: Adapted by AngularJS, Eclipse and more [2] * Open Code of Conduct: Adapted by Github, Yahoo, Facebook, Twitter. [3] * Djanog CoC [4] * Python CoC [5] * Ubuntu CoC [6] * Geek feminism [7] * And much more [8]

Enforcement is still to-be-determined.
This does need to be sorted out ahead of time.
See my proposal at

. There are some details to be refined, but I like having a single
initial
point of contact.
+1 - this looks a good start. Having *something* that can deal with the cases you can hardly believe and yet not fall apart at the social-mechanism gaming that wikicranks are so good at is an excellent start.
