- Value honesty and good will while striving to solve problems.
- Attempt genuinely to understand the point of view of others.
- Model civil behavior and tone, online as well as in public, by:
- Being kind while maintaining the right to vigorously disagree.
- Acting respectfully toward others, including opponents.
- Listening to those who disagree with us, as well as supporters.
- Making only accurate statements when defending a position.
- Refraining from characterizing adversaries as evil.
- Challenge disrespectful behavior, courteously.
- Encourage any person or organization working on our behalf to meet these same standards for civil discourse.
- Renew our efforts, if we fail, and forgive others, if they fail.
