majiayu000 Community Guidelines Skill
Core Philosophy
A thriving community is built on trust, respect, and shared purpose. Guidelines exist not to restrict, but to create a safe space where everyone can participate, learn, and contribute without fear. The goal is fostering belonging, not enforcing compliance.
The Foundation: Psychological Safety
Members must feel safe to:
- Ask "dumb" questions without judgment
- Share work-in-progress without ridicule
- Disagree respectfully without personal attacks
- Make mistakes without permanent consequences
- Express ideas without fear of dismissal
Creating Psychological Safety
## Do
- Respond to all questions with respect
- Assume positive intent
- Thank people for asking
- Normalize not knowing
- Celebrate learning moments
## Don't
- Use phrases like "that's obvious" or "just Google it"
- Dismiss questions as too basic
- Mock mistakes or misunderstandings
- Create in-groups that exclude newcomers
- Let bad behavior slide because someone is "important"

Regional Sensitivity

- Avoid idioms that don't translate across regions
- Use neutral Spanish when possible
- Welcome regional expressions and variations
Inclusive Language
## Guidelines for Spanish
Gender-neutral options:
- "Bienvenid@s" or "Bienvenides" or "Bienvenido/a"
- "Miembros" (already neutral)
- "La comunidad" instead of gendered terms
Welcoming tone:
- Use "tú" for friendly informality
- Avoid overly formal "usted" unless appropriate
- Be warm without being unprofessional
Technical Terms
- Keep code and technical terms in English (industry standard)
- Explain concepts in Spanish
- Provide both Spanish and English resources when available
