==Banned Words==
==Banned Words==
Im talking about this on the forum, what about a list of offensive words that arent constructive, and if you use one you get a 2 day block. Obviously all swear words should be banned, but im also talking about words like "idiot and douche".

As a community we need constructive critisim to improve not only the project but improve ourselves, and words like those offer nothing constructive just an insult.

:I agree, Seeing the word idiot to abuse [[User:Kuki|someone]] just makes me feel like this is Bullypedia rather than Bulbapedia, [[User:DCM|users]] should pick up their act and use nicer words instead of BIG CAPS LOCKED ABUSEIVE RUDE WORDS. This is the internet, Be nice.

::I mean, I don't think I need to make a specific list of banned words--the forum doesn't have such a list.  I'm willing to leave it up to administrator discretion regarding the intent of the word and the consequences that come out from it.  At the same time, anything George Carlin couldn't say on TV is probably not okay here...I don't think that's the domain of the code of conduct per se, though.

==Friend lists and dislike lists==
==Friend lists and dislike lists==
Saying you dislike someone isnt constructive earlier, things like these can lead to bullying and to users either feeling left out of being in someones friend list, or upset that people are openly voicing a dislike for them, it can really emotionally damage some people, and lets face it FRIEND LISTS SERVE LESS PURPOUS THAN ALREADY BANNED THINGS LIKE FANFICTION. So they should be removed to.

:::Look, I'm not the universe police here.  I'm just doing my best to make everything run smoothly.  As I said in the Manual of Nice, if you can't deal with a situation on your own, contact an administrator who can help you--don't just try to confront somebody over something that will get everybody irritated.  For now I'm willing to take him at his word, and his politics, whatever they are, shouldn't change your view of him as a user of the website. -- '''[[User:evkl|<span style="color:#000099">evkl</span>]]''' <sub>[[User_talk:evkl|<span style="color:#006699">(need to talk?)</span>]]</sub> 22:50, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

IDK if this is the right policy page to put this on, but I think that reverting others' edits should ALWAYS require a reason. This would help stop arguing and edit wars. I know a lot of people do this anyway, but maybe something official about it? &mdash; <small>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<font color="#0000C8">THE TROM</font></small>]] &mdash; 05:24, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
