Communications:

WANZ is implementing good behaviour practices in all our communications including social media. These practices respect the public giving feedback and
making enquiries about WANZ and to WANZ about Wikipedia and related projects and topics. The good behaviour practices have clear boundaries to enable a safe and healthy environment for WANZ people undertaking communications.

These practices will be in line with the Wikimedia Foundation guidelines and are based on training by the Umbrella Foundation, and the NZ Ombudsman report Managing unreasonable complainant conduct
