Why the Invisible Man Has Nothing on AboutUs

noperson.png
Transparency is a pivotal value at AboutUs both for our staff and our community at large. It involves our commitment to openness and accountability. We affirm our values by publishing notes of our meetings, using open source coding, communicating in public talk pages and a public IRC channel, and providing a record of our edits on each of our Personal Pages.

It is our hope that by publicizing our actions and our projects we will engage you, our community. If you would like to help build the commons, please see how you can help.

When you have nothing to hide, it's easy to be transparent.

Why is this important?

Transparency builds trust. If you are using a false name, not your own, people may wonder why. It may not be desirable to reveal everything about yourself but a name is something to build upon. Communities can only really begin to develop if the members of that community know each other.

How do I do this?

Your user page is a good place to start.

  • Give your real name
  • Include a photo of yourself
  • Add some information about yourself such as your interest.
