Policy talk:Universal Code of Conduct

Definition of good citizenship

The following definition of an overarching term as "good citizenship" is arbitrary and adds other unspecific terms (active responsibility, safe, pleasant). This could mean anything to anyone, but maybe also something very specific to a particular person.

Mutual support and good citizenship means taking active responsibility for ensuring that the Wikimedia projects are productive, pleasant and safe spaces, and contribute to the Wikimedia mission.

Also, it is quite unclear what Wikimedia project stakeholders are supposed to be citizens of. ~~~~ Rebentisch (talk) 13:32, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

In that grand concept of Wiki-ers being Citizens (some advertised as "heros" too), does any guidance deal with the accuracy of admins etc making vague accusations against content contributors (via templates or in writing)? Any auditing statistics on that? That sort of thing is fraught with pitfalls offwiki, in the USA and elsewhere, such as accusatory approaches, rights to silence, confirmation bias, personality differences, diversity. On Wikipedia (correct this if wrong someone please) , I got the impression that the fraud squad may actually be incentivised to frame people, in order to justify escalating to a checkuser process if they want. This theoretical code of conduct seems to be worthless as of 2024. So long. Wheneveroo (talk) 15:39, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

Hello. For assistance in Arabic, please contact either the helpdesk of the Wikipedia you were looking at - probably w:ar:ويكيبيديا:فريق المساعدة/طلبات - or contact the volunteer response team via email at info-ar@wikimedia.org.

We cannot help with article-content questions at this wiki. Thank you. Quiddity (WMF) (talk) 23:50, 28 May 2025 (UTC)

Misrepresentations or disinformation not covered?

I have been dealing with a user who makes personal attacks, but also surely deliberate misrepresentations of my contributions. I notified him of numerous failures to respect the CoC, yet I ended up failing to show clear violations of the CoC for both of these issues, which I consider the gravest. In particular, I am surprised the Code does not explicitly prohibit misrepresentations of actions of colleagues, or at least―more generally―disinformation. Wikipedia does have a guideline against misrepresentation, but for Meta-Wiki behavior, I ended up with nothing stronger/clearer than the last paragraph, which merely invokes section 2 (expectation of collegiality).

Am I missing something, or does the CoC not declare misrepresentation nor disinformation in general as unacceptable? Chealer (talk) 02:06, 10 August 2025 (UTC)
