Matthew Martin's suggestion on reading code of conduct policies.
These policies are for training moderators who to kick off an area. It is understood that the most likely violators will not read, nor adhere to a code of conduct. Treat an opensource repo like your workplace, for many people participating, it is.
The jiggle_version main repo (jiggle_version delevelopers) are dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, age, race, or religion. We do not tolerate harassment of participants in any form.
This code of conduct applies to all jiggle_version delevelopers spaces, including [list, eg "our mailing lists and IRC channel"], both online and off. Anyone who violates this code of conduct may be sanctioned or expelled from these spaces at the discretion of the repo admins.
Some jiggle_version delevelopers spaces may have additional rules in place, which will be made clearly available to participants. Participants are responsible for knowing and abiding by these rules.

jiggle_version main repo prioritizes marginalized people’s safety over privileged people’s comfort. The repo admis reserves the right not to act on complaints regarding:
- ‘Reverse’ -isms, including ‘reverse racism,’ ‘reverse sexism,’ and ‘cisphobia’
- Reasonable communication of boundaries, such as “leave me alone,” “go away,” or “I’m not discussing this with you.”
- Communicating in a ‘tone’ you don’t find congenial
- Criticizing racist, sexist, cissexist, or otherwise oppressive behavior or assumptions Reporting
- If you are being harassed by a member of jiggle_version main repo, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact the repo admins at @mistersql on twitter. If the person who is harassing you is on the team, they will recuse themselves from handling your incident. We will respond as promptly as we can.
This code of conduct applies to jiggle_version main repo spaces, but if you are being harassed by a member of jiggle_version main repo outside our spaces, we still want to know about it. We will take all good-faith reports of harassment by jiggle_version main repo members, especially the repo admins, seriously. This includes harassment outside our spaces and harassment that took place at any point in time. The abuse team reserves the right to exclude people from jiggle_version main repo based on their past behavior, including behavior outside jiggle_version main repo spaces and behavior towards people who are not in jiggle_version main repo.
In order to protect volunteers from abuse and burnout, we reserve the right to reject any report we believe to have been made in bad faith. Reports intended to silence legitimate criticism may be deleted without response.
We will respect confidentiality requests for the purpose of protecting victims of abuse. At our discretion, we may publicly name a person about whom we’ve received harassment complaints, or privately warn third parties about them, if we believe that doing so will increase the safety of jiggle_version main repo members or the general public. We will not name harassment victims without their affirmative consent.
Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.
If a participant engages in harassing behavior, repo amdins may take any action they deem appropriate, up to and including expulsion from all jiggle_version main repo spaces and identification of the participant as a harasser to other jiggle_version main repo members or the general public.
