Thanks. I agree this could use some cleanup. I think we actually need some larger, sustained efforts around cleaning up our various pages and documentation and rules, and making a new “Content” team to handle this would be a good idea.
For now, here is an easy way to improve this particular situation:
- Rename the “FAQ” page on the forums to “Forum Rules” - here’s how, in the admin settings:
I tried this briefly and confirmed it works, but I will leave the final decision to @wadestriebel:
-
Link to any individual policies/rules from the “Forum Rules” page with an indication that users should read each of them (like the thread you mentioned).
-
Link to the main “Code of Conduct” from the “Forum Rules” page, and vice versa.
About (3) I think Scott had the right instincts in keeping the main code of conduct short and limiting edits to only directors. We are here to make ClassicPress and to be good to each other while doing that, if we find that we are consistently failing at that then we have other issues and making the code of conduct and our policies more complicated is not the solution.
We also need to be careful if we restructure these pages since we have linked to ClassicPress Governance | ClassicPress and other “sub-headings” from a lot of different places already.
