Mission Statement(s), e.g., "Excellence" -- Enforcing and Re-inforcing Hacking "Purity"

Imposter Syndrome Anti-Pattern -- *everyone* has it

Shower Pattern now has an Anti-Pattern, 
as does the Kitchen Pattern.

Territorial Anti-Pattern: people carving out a spot in the space (others too uncomfortable to use "their" space). People who belong tend to drift away.

Reboot Pattern: turn off and on. Invite people to help re-create the space -- creates excitement as everyone feels part of creating the space (like when it's new).

Greeters Pattern: welcome everyone, give tour which includes what space is and is not about. Supports Cultural Immune System Pattern.

Conflict Resolution Pattern
: -- having a system helps!

Gender Equality at spaces

Burnout by community members (or board/officers)

Organizational structures: anarchy, board-run

Decision-making: consensus, majority vote

'''Cultural Immune System Pattern:'''
 
'''Problem:''' You want people in your hackerspace who are good for your community, and want to keep them happy and safe -- and you don't want to attract people who will hurt your community or drive away people who are good for your community. 
'''Solution:''' Social control, "Cultural immune system"

http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/wiki/Feminist_hackerspace_design_patterns

Periodic Show & Tell get-togethers (but don't want to scare people off who aren't "experts" -- see "Imposter Syndrom" Anti-Pattern)

Greet new people, give tour, share about the space's culture from the start.

Remind people when they miss a membership dues payment. Alternatively, require all members pay via an automatic payment system (like paypal).

Automate as much of the busy-work as possible (help avoid burn-out).

Cleanliness -- things can get messy quickly at hackerspaces.

Project storage management isn't easy.

Getting rid of things that aren't used -- otherwise things pile up and get in the way.

Accepting donations is cool -- having policies on when to say "no" to a donation is important.

What draws people to hackerspaces? Community (first), Tools & Equip (second). Getting new stuff should attract more people for the Community.

Maintaining tools & equipment -- how to do it?

Rules & Procedures -- how to disseminate them so everyone knows them? Keep the rules simple to understand. Put up signs that are easy to read at a glance to remind people where needed.

Attract people with Classes and Workshops and Talks and Demos.

Safety for people and tools & equipment: have classes. Some spaces have certification.

Empower people to spread the joy and attract people to your space.

Get rid of old stuffs that are no longer being used, and re-make spaces within your hackerspace that are no longer being used -- this makes way for what's growing in your hackerspace.

The name can attract or repel people. E.g., "Lab" tends to attract males.

How to communicate? Email lists can be unwieldy (and attract trolls). IRC can be a time-sink (and attract trolls). User forum. Wiki. Slack (and non-corporate versions). Usually, there's not a single method that works for all community members.

Security: cameras? Non-anonymous door access system?

Separate tools for space maintenance, or for special purposes?

Most people have strong opinions. When talk of certain discussion topics come up, people tend to email (or to irc, etc), and start off saying they aren't coming to discuss such topics, but they actually end up dead against the particular proposal. Then discussion becomes stifled. (Especially disruptive for groups making decisions with consensus, but disruptive for majority-vote, too.) Solution: Continue online discussion for those who will remain resistant to the groupthink pressure ''du jour'', and move comments and discussion to in-person for the majority of persons willing to fully hear-out and express both sides of the discussion topic in question. Or, to move such conversations one-on-one, for someone who is an active part of the community and is out-of-town at the moment.

Mediation

2015-04-09T23:39:59Z

188.138.17.15: editing tidbits

This is a wiki page for a mediation process to help address interpersonal conflicts in and relating to the Noisebridge community.

All relationships take work. This includes community. Community takes work. Occasionally there may be disagreements in any relationship.

The Noisebridge [[Conflict Resolution]] wiki page contains general guidance for members of the community who are experiencing problems. These suggestions might help someone who is trying to decide if they should seek mediation or not.

The first step when there is a disagreement is for the people involved to talk to each other, and, while following Noisebridge's one rule of being excellent to each other, work out the problem(s) together. This tends to clear up almost all disagreements.

If the disagreement can't be worked out together, both persons involved with the disagreement are encouraged to get together with a mediator.

Mediators are community members who have volunteered their time to help people who have disagreements, to de-escalate conflict, to seek resolution, and to provide community support and protection for all involved. The ideal mediators should strive to make themselves readily accessible to both conflicting parties, and should also enjoy interacting with others without the need for imposing their own wills over those of the other members of the community involved in the particular conflict.

The role of the mediator is to calmly talk with those involved to help clear up the disagreements they have with one another. If those involved agree, the mediator can help schedule an informal get-together with the parties involved (or act as go-between, if that is more appropriate). It is the mediators role to ensure that all involved feel safe, feel heard, and are able to say their peace. No one should feel attacked during the mediation get-together. More details on this are given below (''please see [[Mediation#Specific_process_for_mediators|Specific process for mediators]]'').

In past years, disagreements between community members have been resolved through mediation -- even when it appeared to all those involved that the situation was intractable.

The following people have at some time or another over the last several years volunteered to help mediate conflicts and provide a sounding board and guidance for people who are experiencing troublesome interpersonal interactions.

* [[User:Rachelyra|Rachel Lyra]]
* [[User:Rachel|Rachel]]
* [[User:maltman23|Mitch]]
* [[User:Hurtstotouchfire | Kelly]]
* Sean C
* [[User:Malaclyps|Danny O'B]]
* [[User:Leif|Leif]]
* [[User:bfb|Kevin]]
* [[User:Lxpk|Alex]]
* [[User:Tdfischer|Torrie]]
* [[User:Patrickod|Patrick]]
* [[User:Fineline|Steve]]

Feel free to contact any of the above people if you would like help in mediating any problems. Also, feel free to ask others to mediate for you, as the above volunteers are not an exclusive list.

Noisebridge operates by anarchic chaos, by do-ocracy, and, like all organizations, thru a healthy serving of precedent. There are no rules for how this process should work, but we have some suggestions:

==General process:==
===Mediation:===

Mediators can actively mediate a discussion between the individuals having conflict, or talk to one individual as a proxy for the other.

===Mindfulness towards Escalation:===

If it seems appropriate, after talking with the original parties, the mediator (and indeed everyone involved) should start to tactfully ask around and find out if this is an isolated conflict or a more generalized problem in the community. Most personal problems at Noisebridge can be resolved through a series of calm one-on-one talks, and almost all of the rest can be solved by a series of mediated discussions. If mediation is unsuccessful, or if what is going on appears to be part of a larger pattern, the mediator may suggest calling a meeting of the Safe Space Working Group for discussion.

===Advocate:===

Before a problem with an individual is brought to a Safe Space Working Group, someone must step forward to act as an advocate for the individual, even if that individual happens to be widely disliked. It is all too easy for conflict to prod people into acting in ways that they later regret, and there are sufficient people around the Space who are willing to act as advocates (see above list of mediator volunteers on this wiki page).

Discussing personal conflicts at the larger group level is not really considered all that excellent. OTOH, a small supportive group environment more specifically committed to calm discussion and de-escalation '''can''' help defuse a problematic situation. Mediation and the Safe Space Working Group are resources available for use when needed.

If you try to follow these suggestions, that would be totally excellent.

==Specific process for mediators==

First, talk to the person(s) who asked you to mediate to find out more about the conflict.

Next step is to either calmly discuss the issue with the second party as a proxy or to enter a calm, mediated discussion between the two individuals in conflict.

Mediated discussion between individuals can be casual or very structured, depending on the tenor of the disagreement. One method that works in extreme cases is to sit down with both parties but ask them to only speak to you, not to each other, during the first part of the mediation. This helps each party to feel like their version of events is being heard. After you feel like you have both sides of the story, the conflicting parties should spend some time mirroring each other's feelings - in a structured way, taking turns restating the other person's concerns or position in their own words. Only after this point should the conflicting parties move towards actual dialogue.

At this point, also, it is important that mediators take some time outside of this process to tactfully ask around and find out if this is an isolated conflict or a more generalized problem in the community.

If this mediation is not successful, not embraced by one of the conflicting parties, or is partially successful but the mediator's research indicates that this may be part of a pattern of behavior, the mediator is encouraged to ensure there is an advocate for everyone involved, and to call for a Safe Space Working Group to discuss the issues.

Official, Semi-Official, one-off and other events at the Noisebridge space.

=Event Calendar=
<onlyinclude>
Not all events make it onto this calendar. Many events only make it to the [https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-discuss/ Discussion] or [https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-announce/ Announcements] mailing lists, [[IRC]] or in person at [[:Category:Meeting_Notes | Tuesday meetings]]. Best of all, Noisebridge is about people getting together at the space in San Francisco to do stuff. DO pay attention, as some events just arise organically from the bottom up!

'''Want to host your event at Noisebridge?''' We like seeing classes and talks on interesting things pertaining to various subjects of hacking. Most of all, we like seeing familiar faces. Please participate in the space and our [[Meetings|weekly Tuesday meetings]] to see if we're the right audience for what you want to share before announcing a new event. Additionally, please see our [[Hosting an Event|events hosting page]] for suggestions on how to use Noisebridge for your event/class/workshop.

188.138.17.15: emphasize making MakerFaire happen

Official, Semi-Official, one-off and other events at the Noisebridge space.

=Event Calendar=
<onlyinclude>
Not all events make it onto this calendar. Many events only make it to the [https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-discuss/ Discussion] or [https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-announce/ Announcements] mailing lists, [[IRC]] or in person at [[:Category:Meeting_Notes | Tuesday meetings]]. Best of all, Noisebridge is about people getting together at the space in San Francisco to do stuff. DO pay attention, as some events just arise organically from the bottom up!

'''Want to host your event at Noisebridge?''' We like seeing classes and talks on interesting things pertaining to various subjects of hacking. Most of all, we like seeing familiar faces. Please participate in the space and our [[Meetings|weekly Tuesday meetings]] to see if we're the right audience for what you want to share before announcing a new event. Additionally, please see our [[Hosting an Event|events hosting page]] for suggestions on how to use Noisebridge for your event/class/workshop.

Official, Semi-Official, one-off and other events at the Noisebridge space.

=Event Calendar=
<onlyinclude>
Not all events make it onto this calendar. Many events only make it to the [https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-discuss/ Discussion] or [https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-announce/ Announcements] mailing lists, [[IRC]] or in person at [[:Category:Meeting_Notes | Tuesday meetings]]. Best of all, Noisebridge is about people getting together at the space in San Francisco to do stuff. DO pay attention, as some events just arise organically from the bottom up!

'''Want to host your event at Noisebridge?''' We like seeing classes and talks on interesting things pertaining to various subjects of hacking. Most of all, we like seeing familiar faces. Please participate in the space and our [[Meetings|weekly Tuesday meetings]] to see if we're the right audience for what you want to share before announcing a new event. Additionally, please see our [[Hosting an Event|events hosting page]] for suggestions on how to use Noisebridge for your event/class/workshop.
