<section id="introduction">
<h2>Introduction<a class="headerlink" href="#introduction" title="Permalink to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>This code of conduct applies to all spaces managed by the NetworkX project,
including all public and private mailing lists, issue trackers, wikis, and
any other communication channel used by our community.</p>
<p>This code of conduct should be honored by everyone who participates in
the NetworkX community formally or informally, or claims any affiliation with the
project, in any project-related activities and especially when representing the
project, in any role.</p>
<p>This code is not exhaustive or complete. It serves to distill our common
understanding of a collaborative, shared environment and goals. Please try to
follow this code in spirit as much as in letter, to create a friendly and
productive environment that enriches the surrounding community.</p>
</section>
<section id="specific-guidelines">
<h2>Specific Guidelines<a class="headerlink" href="#specific-guidelines" title="Permalink to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>We strive to:</p>
<ol class="arabic">
<li><p>Be open. We invite anyone to participate in our community. We prefer to use
public methods of communication for project-related messages, unless
discussing something sensitive. This applies to messages for help or
project-related support, too; not only is a public support request much more
likely to result in an answer to a question, it also ensures that any
inadvertent mistakes in answering are more easily detected and corrected.</p></li>
<li><p>Be empathetic, welcoming, friendly, and patient. We work together to resolve
conflict, and assume good intentions. We may all experience some frustration
from time to time, but we do not allow frustration to turn into a personal
attack. A community where people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a
productive one.</p></li>
<li><p>Be collaborative. Our work will be used by other people, and in turn we will
depend on the work of others. When we make something for the benefit of the
project, we are willing to explain to others how it works, so that they can
build on the work to make it even better. Any decision we make will affect
users and colleagues, and we take those consequences seriously when making
decisions.</p></li>
<li><p>Be inquisitive. Nobody knows everything! Asking questions early avoids many
problems later, so we encourage questions, although we may direct them to
the appropriate forum. We will try hard to be responsive and helpful.</p></li>
<li><p>Be careful in the words that we choose.  We are careful and respectful in
our communication and we take responsibility for our own speech. Be kind to
others. Do not insult or put down other participants.  We will not accept
harassment or other exclusionary behaviour, such as:</p>
<blockquote>
<div><ul class="simple">
<li><p>Violent threats or language directed against another person.</p></li>
<li><p>Sexist, racist, or otherwise discriminatory jokes and language.</p></li>
<li><p>Posting sexually explicit or violent material.</p></li>
<li><p>Posting (or threatening to post) other people’s personally identifying information (“doxing”).</p></li>
<li><p>Sharing private content, such as emails sent privately or non-publicly,
or unlogged forums such as IRC channel history, without the sender’s consent.</p></li>
<li><p>Personal insults, especially those using racist or sexist terms.</p></li>
<li><p>Unwelcome sexual attention.</p></li>
<li><p>Excessive profanity. Please avoid swearwords; people differ greatly in their sensitivity to swearing.</p></li>
<li><p>Repeated harassment of others. In general, if someone asks you to stop, then stop.</p></li>
<li><p>Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behaviour.</p></li>
</ul>
</div></blockquote>
</li>
</ol>

<section id="diversity-statement">
<h2>Diversity Statement<a class="headerlink" href="#diversity-statement" title="Permalink to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>The NetworkX project welcomes and encourages participation by everyone. We are
committed to being a community that everyone enjoys being part of. Although
we may not always be able to accommodate each individual’s preferences, we try
our best to treat everyone kindly.</p>
<p>No matter how you identify yourself or how others perceive you: we welcome you.
Though no list can hope to be comprehensive, we explicitly honour diversity in:
age, culture, ethnicity, genotype, gender identity or expression, language,
national origin, neurotype, phenotype, political beliefs, profession, race,
religion, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, subculture and technical
ability.</p>
<p>Though we welcome people fluent in all languages, NetworkX development is
conducted in English.</p>
<p>Standards for behaviour in the NetworkX community are detailed in the Code of
Conduct above. Participants in our community should uphold these standards
in all their interactions and help others to do so as well (see next section).</p>
</section>
<section id="reporting-guidelines">
<h2>Reporting Guidelines<a class="headerlink" href="#reporting-guidelines" title="Permalink to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>We know that it is painfully common for internet communication to start at or
devolve into obvious and flagrant abuse.  We also recognize that sometimes
people may have a bad day, or be unaware of some of the guidelines in this Code
of Conduct. Please keep this in mind when deciding on how to respond to a
breach of this Code.</p>
<p>For clearly intentional breaches, report those to the NetworkX Steering Council
(see below). For possibly unintentional breaches, you may reply to the person
and point out this code of conduct (either in public or in private, whatever is
most appropriate). If you would prefer not to do that, please feel free to
report to the NetworkX Steering Council directly, or ask the Council for
advice, in confidence.</p>
<p>You can report issues to the
<a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/orgs/networkx/teams/steering-council/members">NetworkX Steering Council</a>,
at <a class="reference external" href="mailto:networkx-conduct&#37;&#52;&#48;groups&#46;io">networkx-conduct<span>&#64;</span>groups<span>&#46;</span>io</a>.</p>
<p>If your report involves any members of the Council, or if they feel they have
a conflict of interest in handling it, then they will recuse themselves from
considering your report. Alternatively, if for any reason you feel
uncomfortable making a report to the Council, then you can also contact:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Senior <a class="reference external" href="https://numfocus.org/code-of-conduct#persons-responsible">NumFOCUS staff</a>: <a class="reference external" href="mailto:conduct&#37;&#52;&#48;numfocus&#46;org">conduct<span>&#64;</span>numfocus<span>&#46;</span>org</a>.</p></li>
</ul>

<section id="incident-reporting-resolution-code-of-conduct-enforcement">
<h2>Incident reporting resolution &amp; Code of Conduct enforcement<a class="headerlink" href="#incident-reporting-resolution-code-of-conduct-enforcement" title="Permalink to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>We will investigate and respond to all complaints. The NetworkX Steering Council
will protect the identity of the reporter, and treat the content of
complaints as confidential (unless the reporter agrees otherwise).</p>
<p>In case of severe and obvious breaches, e.g., personal threat or violent, sexist
or racist language, we will immediately disconnect the originator from NetworkX
communication channels.</p>
<p>In cases not involving clear severe and obvious breaches of this code of
conduct, the process for acting on any received code of conduct violation
report will be:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li><p>acknowledge report is received</p></li>
<li><p>reasonable discussion/feedback</p></li>
<li><p>mediation (if feedback didn’t help, and only if both reporter and reportee agree to this)</p></li>
<li><p>enforcement via transparent decision by the NetworkX Steering Council</p></li>
</ol>
<p>The Council will respond to any report as soon as possible, and at most
within 72 hours.</p>
