Karen, you should send this back to the Geek Feminism folks -- I am sure
they'd be interested in seeing your edits, and they also like to report on
orgs that have implemented such policies in general.

I did a somewhat radical edit of the policy. To me it sounded
heavy-handed,
and I didn't think that we needed such in our community. I also want to
distinguish between "bloopers" that need correction and active
harassment. A
lot of discriminatory language is unconscious but still should be gently
corrected. [1]
I also don't think that these are "rules" -- a policy is a policy, and I
think rules is too strong a term.
Because of the amount that I changed (and because I really wasn't sure
what
would happen when I hit "save") these changes are still in my "fork":

Let me know if I should commit it (and I'm assuming that's just a matter
of
hitting the "commit" button).
