How to proceed
- Are you in the right place? Thinking about creating or certifying an RfC/U? See Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/User conduct/Guidance.
- Thinking about generally participating in an RfC/U? Or responding to an RfC/U where you are the subject? See Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/User conduct/Guidance2.
- Looking for more informal feedback on yourself? Try Misplaced Pages:Editor review or Misplaced Pages:Administrator review instead of RfC/U.
Instructions for this page
All participants in a user conduct RfC are expected to comply with the rules and guidelines, stated here, and below.
- Once an RfC is created, it should be listed in the "Candidates pages" section, until the minimum requirements (listed below) have been met.
- Once the requirements are met, the RfC should be moved from the "Candidate pages" section to the "Approved pages" section.
- If the minimum requirements are not met, see closing and archiving (listed further below).
Minimum requirements
Before requesting community comment, at least two editors must have contacted the user on their talk page, or the talk pages involved in the dispute, and tried but failed to resolve the problem. Any RfC not accompanied by evidence showing that two users tried and failed to resolve the same dispute will be deleted after 48 hours as "uncertified". The evidence, preferably in the form of diffs, should not simply show the dispute itself, but should show attempts to find a resolution or compromise. The users certifying the dispute must be the same users who were involved in the attempt to resolve it.
Closing and archiving
RfC/Us should be closed in line with the rules and guidelines for closing an RfC/U. Certified disputes which have been closed in this way may be removed from this page and archived.
If the above criteria have been met, remove the link from the list here and add it to the archives at Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/User conduct/Archive. If the dispute is handled in mediation or arbitration, please make a note of where the dispute resolution process continued.
RfCs which do not meet minimum requirements should be delisted from the "Candidate pages" section - they are not archived as they are considered "uncertified".
{{subst:ConductResult|outcome of RfC}} may be used for the closing of the RfC.
General user conduct
Discussions about user conduct should be listed in this section unless the complaint is specifically about the use of admin privileges (see section below) or the choice of username (see Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/User names).
See Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/User conduct/Guidance for the steps on creating an RfC/U.
Once you have created the RfC/U, list the dispute by editing Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/User conduct/UsersList
Use of administrator privileges
This section is only for discussions specifically related to the use of sysop rights by Misplaced Pages:Administrators. This includes the actions of protecting or unprotecting pages, deleting or undeleting pages, blocking or unblocking users, and enforcing Arbitration Committee decisions. If the dispute is over an admin's actions as an editor, it should be listed under the General user conduct section above.
See Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/User conduct/Guidance for the steps on creating an RfC/U.
Once you have created the RfC/U, list the dispute by editing Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/User conduct/AdminsList
Use of bot privileges
This section is only for discussions specifically related to the operation of a bot. This includes the actions of unauthorized bots, bots without flags, and inter-wiki bots. It does not include the use of scripts or semi-automated tools on a user's account. If the dispute is over a bot owner's actions as an editor, it should be listed under the General user conduct section above. See Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/User conduct/Guidance before creating an RfC/U.
Once you have created the RfC/U, list the dispute as follows by editing Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/User conduct/BotsList:
- Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/Example bot
- Allegations: {one or two short sentences giving the dry facts} ~~~~~
