| - Ahem...can I make a suggestion for the shortcut being [[GW:GARES]]? :P As before the port, I like the examples. As they do not encompass every type of abuse, they do lay down a wide and useful reference for users. Also, stating that it applies to everyone is always a good thing as well as advice of not taking it personally. Obviously from reading my personal statement regarding personal attacks, I am for it. In the past week I know of a death threat and a comment towards a user's level of gayness (examples can be provided if you feel like it) and I think making this proposal a policy would reach more users than some statement on a user page. Some wording and such might have to be tweaked depending on how the majority of the userbase follows it, but thats to be expected. — Gares 20:48, 13 January 2007 (CST) I fully support this more structured implementation of GW:GARES. --Rainith 21:49, 13 January 2007 (CST) I applaud and completely agree with this effort, and offer thanks for taking this initiative. I'm not much of a word-smith, so as long as the underlying message stays the same I fully support this. One phrase I've never understood from Wikipedia's version of this policy (and in this ported version) is "recurring, non-disruptive personal attacks." Particularly the "non-disruptive" part... I don't know what's meant by it. Help? Furthermore, shouldn't ANY recurring personal attacks (disruptive or non-) be reported to one of the active admins? --Zampani 23:41, 13 January 2007 (CST) Good point, I removed the "non-disruptive" comment - recurring personal attacks should be reported. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 11:53, 14 January 2007 (CST) Regarding non-disruptive, I think it was referring to situations where a user blanks an article or removes other user's comments and places, " is a ", which is disruptive to the wiki since information was blanked/removed. Non-disruptive is just a statement in a discussion where an user insults another user and nothing is removed, changed, etc. My view on the word, though it doesn't matter whether it's in or not from my perspective. — Gares 19:32, 15 January 2007 (CST) I see where you're coming from on this - but that meaning isn't obvious to me in the ported version. We could spell it out further to explain that's what is meant, or we could leave out the "non-disruptive" comment. Either is fine with me. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 20:05, 16 January 2007 (CST) It seems a bit long winded and unnecessarily complex for a policy that basically boils down to "be fair and play nice", but I completely agree with the sentiment behind it. If anybody's counting consider this a vote of support. --NieA7 11:41, 19 January 2007 (CST) I think it can be made shorter, but I am fine with it as it is now. --Karlos 19:04, 26 January 2007 (CST) I am against this whole policy. Not because I think it should be allowed for users to attack each other, but because it should be common sense not to do so. I would find it very sad if this kind of policy would really be neccessary. Do we really need to tell people to behave? Do we need a policy to back us up if we ban people who don't behave? --84-175 (talk) 15:59, 27 January 2007 (CST) I think if we got rid of the builds section there would be a lot less need for this policy, but I don't think it hurts to have it (the policy). --Rainith 16:08, 27 January 2007 (CST) Steel and strength add weight to any prayer. Like Rainith says, it certainly wouldn't hurt to have this as a policy. Besides, it is nice for argument's sake to be able to reference an official GW:POLICY. For example when people link to GW:1RV, that gives their argument a lot more weight. So, same thing here. Personally I will always use [[GW:NPA|GW:GARES]] but that's just me. Oh, and besides, they do teach the "Golden Rule" in school. And it's often listed in official rulebooks. Surely that's not bad...? Entropy 00:33, 29 January 2007 (CST) But the Golden Rule isn't written down in any actual rulebook. ;) Of course this polity isn't bad. But it is very sad, from an idealistic point of view (yeah, call me naive, or a dreamer, if you like :p ). However, I won't oppose it's implementation, as I can see that this policy has a lot of supporters. --84-175 (talk) 03:02, 29 January 2007 (CST) At one time, I would've said this policy isn't needed. But, with the build section getting steadilly worse, I regretfully believe the time has come to add this policy, which is why I ported it over from the version at Wikipedia:No personal attacks as a proposed policy for GuildWiki. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 16:42, 30 January 2007 (CST) I give this policy two thumbs up. I'd like to see its implementation soon. —Tanaric 14:32, 1 February 2007 (CST)
