We do want to be clear that hounding people even for mistakes is not appropriate behavior. Accordingly, we are embracing as a minimum standard that after initial efforts to correct and educate users, responsibility for addressing ongoing problems should shift from the individual to community processes.</translate> \|- ! colspan="2" \|<translate><!--T:35--> 3.3 Content vandalism and abuse of the projects</translate> \|- \|<translate><!--T:36--> Changed: "The <sdel>'''gratuitous, unjustified and decontextualized addition'''</sdel> of symbols, images, or <sdel>'''any kind'''</sdel> of content ~~<s>~~'''<del>with the intent to</sdel> intimidate or harm''' others <sdel>'''(or to impose an arbitrary scheme on content)'''</sdel>."</translate> ~~→~~{{pa\|next}} <translate><!--T:37--> "The '''use''' of symbols, images, '''categories, tags''' or '''other kinds''' of content '''that are intimidating or harmful to''' others '''outside of the context of encyclopedic, informational use.
