  • Legal support for court petitions: When UCoC is implemented, WMF could support Japanese speaking community or admins in particular better, so that legal actions will be an option to ban very long term vandals; under Japanese court law, Jawp is not classified as an entity to file a damage claim against vandals itself.
  • Masking privacy of ex-offenders: When UCoC is discussed, it is advised that the Jawp community would rethink their policy for masking private data of ex-offenders; the current Jawp policy supports a particular Japan’s Supreme Court case.
  • Community feedback
    Gender fairness should be noted in the UCoC, while cultural context needs to be respected/handled with care or communities might backfire and would say they don’t have anything to do with gender gap/sexist attitude. For example, “Maiden release/voyage” is a term which is imported into many cultures. One gender-conscious user pointed out discomfort/sensitivity against such terms as "virgin" or "maiden", that in general tends to be used in sexist points of view.
