Code of Conduct
This project welcomes questions, critique, and collaboration. It also requires civility and evidence. The rules below help keep discussion productive, fair, and reproducible.
Contact for moderation and reports: hello@onestardao.com
Short version
- Be respectful. Argue ideas, not people.
- Read before you judge. Engage with the actual files and methods.
- Critique with evidence that others can verify.
- No harassment, brigading, or doxxing.
- Critiques that do not reference the repository content or provide verifiable support may be treated as non actionable.
- Maintainers may close or lock threads that are not constructive.
Scope
This Code applies to all project spaces. This includes GitHub Issues, Discussions, PRs, Wiki, and any official mirrors or documentation linked from this repository.
Our standards
Expected behavior
- Stay on topic. Use specific references to files, commits, releases, or DOIs when relevant.
- Be accurate and charitable. Summarize what you think the author claims before you disagree.
- Provide enough detail for others to reproduce or inspect a result. Prefer facts over speculation.
- Accept correction gracefully. Credit sources and contributors.
- Use clear language. English or Chinese are both welcome.
Unacceptable behavior
- Personal attacks, slurs, or harassment.
- Trolling, sealioning, or derailing threads.
- Repeated allegations without verifiable evidence.
- Doxxing or attempts to reveal personal identity.
- Spam, link bombing, vote brigading, or mass reporting.
- Dismissive drive by criticisms that do not engage with the repository content or provide verifiable support.
- Misrepresentation of results, logs, or screenshots.
Evidence based critique policy
This repository aims to publish inspectable and reproducible artifacts. Criticism that improves the work is welcome. To keep review efficient, critiques must meet a minimal bar so that maintainers and readers can evaluate them quickly.
When you claim an error, please include:
- What you tried to reproduce: file path or DOI, commit hash or tag, and the exact prompt or command.
- Your environment: model name or version, OS, Python or tool versions.
- What you expected and what you observed. Include logs or diffs when possible.
- A minimal example that others can run or inspect.
Issues or discussions that do not meet this bar may be labeled non actionable. Maintainers may request more detail. If none is provided, the thread may be closed to reduce noise. Repeated non actionable posts may result in additional moderation actions such as locks or blocks.
Science and skepticism
- Skepticism is healthy. Dismissal without engagement or evidence is not constructive.
- The principle "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence" applies to all sides. If you claim a failure, bring data that someone else can check.
- We track corrections publicly. If an error is confirmed, we will document it and thank the reporter.
Moderator guidelines
Maintainers use a progressive ladder. Steps may be skipped for severe cases.
- Nudge: a reminder of this Code with a link.
- Request revision: ask for missing evidence or clarity.
- Move or merge: consolidate off topic or duplicate threads into a central discussion.
- Close: end non constructive or non actionable threads.
- Lock: prevent further replies if a thread attracts harassment or repeated disruption.
- Block or report: for harassment, doxxing, or coordinated abuse.
A "Critiques and Questions" mega thread may be pinned during high traffic. New critique threads may be redirected there.
Reporting
If you experience or witness behavior that violates this Code:
- Email hello@onestardao.com with links, screenshots, and context.
- Do not engage in prolonged fights. We will review and respond.
We keep reporter information confidential when legally possible.
Maintainer responsibilities
- Apply the rules consistently and document decisions briefly.
- Prefer transparency. Close rather than delete. Lock rather than hide.
- Provide clear paths to reproduce results and to file actionable reports.
- Update FAQs when a recurring question appears.
Appeals
If your post was closed, locked, or removed and you believe this was a mistake, email hello@onestardao.com with the thread link and a short explanation. We will review. Repeated appeals without new information may be ignored.
A note about platform incidents
Distribution mirrors can fail or be removed by automated systems. This repository is the primary reference point for project materials. External DOIs or mirrors will be linked and versioned when available. If a platform removes a link, we will document the change and provide an alternative when possible.
