- Stay calm and maintain a professional demeanor. Be patient and remain courteous and civil.
- Avoid conflict, even when you know you are right. Give other editors the benefit of the doubt.
- Assume good faith toward your collaborating editors, if not their edits. Assuming good faith is not intended to be self-destructive, but to avoid conflict.
- Ignore attacks. Not easily done, but a real timesaver. Attacks and counter-attacks are hazardous to your mental health. The best and most frequently offered administrative advice is to move on, and, if absolutely necessary, return the next day.
- Don't take it personally. Editors make honest mistakes. Communicating our thoughts is not easily done on the Internet.
- Don't isolate your interpretation. There are many interpretations other than yours. What you read might NOT be what was meant.
- Don't think of editing as a competition. WE are cohorts, collaborating to improve our thing.
- Don't edit when angry or upset. Stay off the article and talk page in question. Never let your anger or frustration be the deciding factor in your behavior.
- Don't forget the human dimension of Wikipedia editing. Keep things in perspective. There is a real, living and breathing, sensitive human on the other side of the discussion.
