+2. Just to let you know, Wikimedia Italia has recently approved a Code of Conduct,[1] roughly based on WMF's Friendly Space Policy, with the difference that we explicitly stated that the person that gets sanctioned in light of the Code of Conduct has the right to know why the sanction has been taken. I think *this* would be the one and only amendment that we should do to the FSP. It doesn't have to be publicly announced by Katherine or Jimbo to the whole assembly, but at least it'd be nice for the person affected to know. There's also another thing we should do, but this cannot be an amendment to the FSP. I quote directly DaB. on this: Il giorno lun 30 lug 2018 alle ore 02:24 DaB. <w...@dabpunkt.eu> ha scritto: > I will respect the other people around me, I will try to > not make them uncomfortable, and if there is a problem (for example: > being too loud) I expect that somebody will talk to me, and I’m sure > that there will be a solution. I know that somebody would feel... weird in asking certain things, or to respect certain things. I know what it's like, because I live in constant fear of "doing the wrong thing", since I too have some minor problems in approaching new people, and sometimes overthink too much the weight of my words or actions. Asking politely not to do certain things to me is perfect, but in a way we should remember Wikimania or any other wiki event is NOT an hostile environment - quite the opposite. In my experience, I found wiki events the perfect environment to step up a bit my "social skills", because I know this is *my* people I'm addressing, let's not forget that. L.
