<p>change for policy status template</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{Guideline|draft}}<br /> '''Be civil towards other users on Guild Wars Wiki'''. ''Incivility'' is roughly defined here as ''behavior that causes an atmosphere of greater conflict and stress''.<br /> <br /> == Examples ==<br /> Petty examples of incivility:<br /> *Aggressive rudeness.<br /> *Belittling contributors because of their language skills or word choice.<br /> *Calling someone a liar, or accusing him/her of slander or libel (even if true).<br /> *Ill-considered accusations of impropriety of one kind or another.<br /> *Judgmental tone in edit summaries (&quot;snipped rambling crap&quot;).<br /> <br /> More serious examples of incivility:<br /> *Indecent suggestions.<br /> *Slander or libel.<br /> *[[Guild Wars Wiki:No personal attacks|Personal attacks]], such as harrassment.<br /> *Racial, ethnic, sexual, and religious slurs and disparaging analogies.<br /> *Vandalism.<br /> <br /> == Suggestions for responding to incivility ==<br /> <br /> *Respond with greater civility and respect. Many editors will moderate their tone to match yours.<br /> *Ignore it. Operate as if the offensive comments do not exist.<br /> *Walk away. Edit elsewhere for a while and return when tempers have cooled.<br /> *Remember that you don't have to like an editor as a person to appreciate that they're also working for the good of the project.<br /> *For clear cases of serious or ongoing incivility, consider making a comment on the offender's talk page, and, if the behaviour continues, [[Guild Wars Wiki:Arbitration policy|arbitration]].</div>
