Walkthrough

The CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md was revised: the pledge wording was broadened to reference "members, contributors, and leaders" and explicitly includes visible or invisible disability, sex characteristics, socio‑economic status, caste, and color, plus a new sentence committing to an open, welcoming, diverse, inclusive, and healthy community. Enforcement contact was changed to "community leaders responsible for enforcement" and now states complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly; confidentiality language was generalized. Attribution was updated to note adaptation from Contributor Covenant v2.1 with the corresponding URL. Lines changed: +8/-7.

The enforcement section updates look good overall. Consider these optional refinements:

  • Line 37: "project-designated" (with hyphen) is more grammatically correct than "project designated"
  • Line 39: "regarding" is more concise than "with regard to"
📝 Optional wording improvements

"project-designated" where used, and use the official privacy sentence "All

reporter of any incident." Ensure the replaced block exactly matches the CC v2.1
enforcement section wording.
- Line 5: The Code of Conduct pledge in CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md does not match
Contributor Covenant v2.1 despite the attribution; either replace the current
pledge paragraph and opening sentence with the exact official v2.1 text
(including the missing second pledge sentence and all protected categories such
as visible/invisible disability, sex characteristics, education, socio-economic
status, caste, color) or change the attribution line that claims v2.1 to
correctly reflect the actual version/derivation; update the opening phrase to
the official "We as members, contributors, and leaders" if adopting v2.1 and
ensure the entire document matches the official v2.1 wording exactly if you keep
that attribution.

Enforcement Responsibilities

Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful.

Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation decisions when appropriate. [1]

Enforcement

Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at [INSERT CONTACT METHOD]. All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.

All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the reporter of any incident. [1]

Replace enforcement section to match Contributor Covenant v2.1; fix hyphenation.

The enforcement section (lines 37-39) deviates significantly from the official Contributor Covenant v2.1 text. Since the file attributes itself to CC v2.1, the enforcement section should match the official wording exactly. Key differences:

  1. Line 37: Uses "project maintainers" and "project designated contact address" instead of the official "community leaders responsible for enforcement at [INSERT CONTACT METHOD]"—and "project designated" should be hyphenated as "project-designated" (compound adjective).

  2. Line 39: The privacy language differs from the official text. CC v2.1 states "All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the reporter of any incident," but the current text adds different phrasing about investigating and addressing behavior.

Replace with the official CC v2.1 enforcement section to ensure consistency with the claimed source attribution.
