Universal Code of Conduct/Research - Other Wiki projects

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki
Universal Code of Conduct

The research methodology is similar to that of one used for Wikipedia projects with one exception. For projects other than Wikipedia we compared the behavioural policies of projects with the Wikimedia Terms of Use and assigned ratings accordingly. Thus, a project with a uniqueness rating of 3 implies that the project has developed at least one unique policy pertinent to its community practices in addition to following the Wikimedia Terms of Use, a uniqueness rating of 2 means that the project has adopted conduct policies from the Wikimedia Terms of Use, but has modified the content to make it more suitable to fit their cultural practices, a uniqueness rating of 1 signifies that the policies of the project are very similar to that of the policies listed in Wikimedia Terms of Use, and lastly a uniqueness rating of 0 indicates that  only limited work has been done on the project with respect to developing conduct policies.
