Hello everyone,
A
vote in SecurePoll from 7 to 21 March 2022
is scheduled as part of the ratification process for the Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) Enforcement guidelines. Eligible voters are invited to answer a poll question and share comments.
Read voter information and eligibility details.
During the poll, voters will be asked if they support the enforcement of the Universal Code of Conduct based on the proposed guidelines.
The
Universal Code of Conduct
(UCoC) provides a baseline of acceptable behavior for the entire movement. The
revised enforcement guidelines
were published 24 January 2022 as a proposed way to apply the policy across the movement. A
Wikimedia Foundation Board statement
calls for a
ratification process
where eligible voters will have an opportunity to support or oppose the adoption of the UCoC Enforcement guidelines in a vote. Wikimedians are invited to
translate and share important information
. For more information about the UCoC, please see the
project page
and
frequently asked questions
on Meta-wiki.
There are events scheduled to learn more and discuss:
- A
community panel
recorded on 18 February 2022 shares perspectives from small- and medium-sized community participants.
- The
Movement Strategy and Governance
(MSG) team is hosting Conversation Hours on 4 March 2022 at 15:00 UTC. Please
sign-up

Conversation Hour summaries
