+# MDAnalysis Code of Conduct and Community Guidelines
+
+MDAnalysis is an engaged and respectful community made up of people from all
+over the world. Your involvement helps us to further our mission and to create
+an open platform that serves a broad range of communities, from research and
+education to industry and beyond. This diversity is one of our biggest
+strengths, but it can also lead to communication issues and conflicts.
+Therefore, we have a few ground rules we ask that our community members adhere
+to.
+
+Fundamentally, we are committed to providing a productive,
+harassment-free environment for everyone. Rather than considering this
+code an exhaustive list of things that you can’t do, take it in the
+spirit it is intended - a guide to make it easier to enrich all of us
+and the communities in which we participate.
+
+Importantly: as a member of our community, you are also a steward of these
+values. Not all problems need to be resolved via formal processes, and often a
+quick, friendly but clear word on an online forum or in person can help resolve
+a misunderstanding and de-escalate things.
+
+However, sometimes these informal processes may be inadequate: they fail to
+work, there is urgency or risk to someone, nobody is intervening publicly and
+you don't feel comfortable speaking in public, etc. For these or other reasons,
+structured follow-up may be necessary and here we provide the means for that: we
+welcome reports by
+emailing [*Conduct-email*][conduct-mail] or
+in anonymous by filling out [*this form*][conduct-form].
+
+This code applies equally to founders, developers, mentors and new
+community members, in all spaces managed by MDAnalysis. This
+includes the mailing lists, our GitHub organizations, our chat rooms,
+in-person events, and any other forums created by the project team. In
+addition, violations of this code outside these spaces may affect a
+person's ability to participate within them.
+
+By embracing the following principles, guidelines and actions to follow or
+avoid, you will help us make MDAnalysis a welcoming and productive community. If
+that doesn't answer your questions, feel free to contact us
+at our [*user-mailing-list*](mailto:mdnalysis-discussions@googlegroups.com).
+
+
+1. **Be friendly and patient**.
+
+2. **Be welcoming**. We strive to be a community that welcomes and supports
+   people of all backgrounds and identities. This includes, but is not limited
+   to, members of any race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, color,
+   immigration status, social and economic class, educational level, sex, sexual
+   orientation, gender identity and expression, age, physical appearance, family
+   status, political belief, technological or professional choices, academic
+   discipline, religion, mental ability, and physical ability.
+
+3. **Be considerate**. Your work will be used by other people, and you in turn
+   will depend on the work of others. Any decision you take will affect users
+   and colleagues, and you should take those consequences into account when
+   making decisions. Remember that we're a world-wide community. You may be
+   communicating with someone with a different primary language or cultural
+   background.
+
+4. **Be respectful**. Not all of us will agree all the time, but disagreement is
+   no excuse for poor behavior or poor manners. We might all experience some
+   frustration now and then, but we cannot allow that frustration to turn into a
+   personal attack. It’s important to remember that a community where people
+   feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a productive one.
+
+5. **Be careful in the words that you choose**. Be kind to others. Do not insult
+   or put down other community members. Harassment and other exclusionary
+   behavior are not acceptable. This includes, but is not limited to:
+   * threats or violent language directed against another person
+   * discriminatory jokes and language
+   * posting sexually explicit or violent material
+   * posting (or threatening to post) other people's personally identifying
+     information ("doxing")
+   * personal insults, especially those using racist or sexist terms
+   * unwelcome sexual attention
+   * advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior
+   * repeated harassment of others. In general, if someone asks you to stop,
+     then stop
+
+6. **Moderate your expectations**. Many in our community volunteer their time.
+   They are probably not purposefully ignoring issues, refusing to engage in
+   discussion, avoiding features, etc. but often just unavailable.
+
+7. **When we disagree, try to understand why**. Disagreements, both social and
+   technical, happen all the time and MDAnalysis is no exception. It is important
+   that we resolve disagreements and differing views constructively. Remember
+   that we’re different. The strength of MDAnalysis comes from its varied community
+   that includes people from a wide range of backgrounds. Different people have
+   different perspectives on issues. Being unable to understand why someone
+   holds a viewpoint doesn’t mean they’re wrong. Don’t forget that it is human
+   to err and blaming each other doesn’t get us anywhere. Instead, focus on
+   helping to resolve issues and learning from mistakes.
+
+8. **A simple apology can go a long way**. It can often de-escalate a situation,
+   and telling someone that you are sorry is act of empathy that doesn’t
+   automatically imply an admission of guilt.
+
+# Reporting
+
+If someone makes you or any other contributor feel unsafe or unwelcome, please
+report this in a timely manner. Code of conduct violations reduce the value of
+the community for everyone and we take them seriously. All complaints will be
+reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that is deemed necessary
+and appropriate to the circumstances.
+
+You can file a report by emailing
+the [*Conduct-mail*][conduct-mail] or by
+filing out [this form][conduct-form]. The project team is obligated to maintain
+confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.
+
+The online form gives you the option to keep your report anonymous or request
+that we follow up with you directly. While we cannot follow up on an anonymous
+report, we will take appropriate action.
+
+# Enforcement
+
+When a report is sent to us we will reply as soon as possible to confirm receipt;
+we strive to answer in less than 24 hours. We will review the incident and
+determine, to the best of our ability
+
+- what happened
+- whether this event constitutes a code of conduct violation
+- who, if anyone, was at fault
+- whether this is an ongoing situation
+
+This information will be collected in writing. We strive to reach a resolution
+within a week of confirmation. Once a resolution has been agreed upon, but before it is
+enacted, we will contact the original reporter and any other affected parties
+and explain the proposed resolution. We will ask if this resolution is
+acceptable and note feedback for the record. We are, however, not required to act
+on this feedback.
