Share your thoughts on the draft UCoC training materials.

The UCoC’s Enforcement Guidelines (EG) recommends the development of training modules to provide a common understanding of the UCoC, and we're seeking your insights, feedback, and suggestions. Your perspectives are invaluable as we strive to ensure these training modules comprehensively address the needs and expectations of our global community.

If you’re interested, sign-up here so we can keep you informed about the progress!

How can you help?

  • Do you have general thoughts, comments, suggestions, questions?
  • Is there anything unclear or could be phrased differently?
  • Could a word, a sentence or paragraph be changed to make the text more translatable?
  • Do you have any ideas for making the modules more interactive?

We look forward to your input! :) MFischer (WMF) (talk) 16:53, 28 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

The information is interesting and, for me, clearly presented - is there any consideration of adding another format - e.g., talking video with subtitles that could be easily translated? Klára Joklová (WMCZ) (talk) 09:42, 3 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Same remarks than for module 1 :

  • the draft is to meager to make constructive comments at this stage.

You should work in details especially when you propose external links : all cultures must be represented. Don't just take an american site.

  • For the survey : think about to present more recent figures. 2015 is now about ten years old, it is no more significative of the platforms in 2024 which have also now a lot of pressure by different government laws in different regions. So : give recent surveys of the Foundation, give recent works or definitions of online harrassement like OGBV etc... We need standards.
  • Harassement and abuse of power are often interpreted differently in the community by the conflicting parties. What I heard from people is also: the U4C is a Global Arbcom and a Supreme Court. So they will complain to the U4C in that spirit. What do you think about this and how will you treat this point in the training module?
  • Design the training modules as a presentation of slides, with a structured plan, segmented topics, illustrations by photos from commons, graphics and links, to give them an attractive aspect and help people understand, interact and memorize.

Thank you for your comments @Waltercolor. Do you mind sharing specific sections that you believe are too meager and we can work from there? (baring that some aspects of the UCoC such as the incident response system are not in place yet and as such have some vagueness). As to your other points:
  • Unfortunately, the most recent harassment survey by the Foundation is from 2015. Indeed a long time ago, but if you have a more recent survey, please share. This is a great resource on OGBV.
  • Indeed, harassment and abuse of power are often interpreted differently in the community. The Universal Code of Conduct itself and these modules serve as a baseline. Communities are encouraged to build on this baseline and create modules that align with the realities and needs of their community.
  • As mentioned in the other comment, the final version will be placed on Learn.Wiki
