フォーラムエチケット

このガイドラインはコミュニティによるモデレーションチームの経験に基づいて時間をかけて編み出されたものです。Arch フォーラムは本質的に実用本位です。

コモンセンス

• Arch Linux を使うことを選んだのならば、歓迎され、The Arch Way を信奉することが推奨されます。
• 助けを求めるときは、マニュアルを読んで、自分で検索してから、助けを求めたいことについての詳細な情報を提供してください。
• 助言をするときは、出来る限り辛抱強く思いやりをもってお願いします。

• Arch はボランティアによるコミュニティです。したがって、一つの訓戒にこのドキュメントの全てを凝縮させることができます:

Proactively seek to give of yourself and to bring only benefit to your peers and community.

個人的なトピック/暴言

暴言や愚痴は認められません。発見次第すぐにクローズされます。この種の投稿をするときはブログなどの個人的なウェブページの方が適しており、Arch フォーラムでは求められていません。公的な投稿は、全てのメンバーにとってオープンで生産的、かつ意味のあるものであるべきです。特定のグループのユーザーにしか通用しない議論はプライベートなメッセージを使いましょう。

益のない議論 (BIKESHED)

"Arch のシステムと方法論には問題がある、それについて議論するべきだ"というようなスレッドは無駄かつ扇動的ということが何度も証明されています。通常、モデレーションチームによる警告の後、ロックされます。Arch は Do It Yourself のコミュニティです。システムの問題を認識したのならば、上手く行くような解決法を考えて、実装し、それから投稿してください。

さらに、Arch Linux の開発チームによって使用されている手段について疑問や議論を投げかけるようなことは厳重に監視され、役に立たないまたは生産的でないと判断された場合ロックされます。刺々しい、非生産的な批判もまた御呼びではありません。

Arch の開発について疑問があるのであれば、トピックに具体的な質問を記載して、返答に対しては広い心で受け取るようにお願いします。可能であれば、解決方法または部分的な解決方法を提供してください。自分のために他人に何かして欲しいとお願いするよりも、コードやパッチを投稿して議論を求める方が常に実用的です。

責任を持つこと

対人関係の問題が起こった場合は、懐を深くして、あなたの行動がその問題に多少なりとも寄与している可能性があるということを考えてください。自分の行動について責任を持つことが平和的な和解への第一歩です。

他のユーザーのリスペクト

要するに、自分に対してと同じように他人にも接しましょう。たとえ意見が合わなくても、他人を敬うことを忘れずに。

他のディストリビューションやオペレーティングシステムのリスペクト

他の GNU/Linux ディストリビューション、他のオペレーティングシステム、そしてそのユーザーの悪口を言うのは禁止です。Arch チームは無償で時間と労力を割いて Arch Linux ディストリビューション、ドキュメント、フォーラムを運営しています。他のディストリビューションやオペレーティングシステムのユーザーとコミュニティにもどうぞ敬意を払って下さい。意見や見聞、持論はいつでも歓迎しますが、非生産的な中傷はお断りです。

絵やコードの貼り付け

コンソールの出力の一部を貼り付けるときは [code] タグを使って下さい。大量のコードを投稿するときは Pastebin クライアントを使用します。ロケールを英語以外に設定しているユーザーは、コマンドの前に LC_ALL=C を付けて実行してください。出力が英語になります。フルスクリーンの画像は投稿しないでください、代わりにサムネイルを使いましょう。解像度が 250x250 以上の画像やサイズが 50Kb 以上の画像は削除されます。テキスト出力のスクリーンショットを投稿してはいけません。素のテキストを投稿してください。

プロダクトの推薦文のリクエスト

推薦されるコンピュータ製品のアドバイスを求めるようなスレッドは止められます。そこで議論されるテクノロジーなどのトピックは、すぐに時代遅れのものとなり、長持ちするような利益はコミュニティにもたらさないのが常です。自分で調査して自分で結論を出して自分でどの製品が一番相応しいか答えを出せるはずです。

スパム/宣伝/勧誘

スパムは禁止されています。スパムはフォーラムのレポート機能を使って報告してください。モデレータが削除するべきかどうか判断します。スパムを投稿したアカウントと関連する IP アドバイスはアクセス制限を受けます。スパムによる投稿に返事を書かないでください。スパムを消すのに必要な作業が増えてしまいます。

Publicity, if it is related to Arch (as a project or community) or GNU/Linux/FOSS, will usually be allowed. Promoting web-invites, blog posts or commercial promotions are actively discouraged, or outright prohibited. Registering just to promote your issue/cause, FOSS-related or not, treats the community as a resource and is not acceptable; if unsure about the appropriateness of your content, contact the moderation team before posting. Also be aware that posting shortened/obscured links is a technique of spammers and deliberately inhibits the communities ability to judge the propriety of the link. Therefore, please only post links that include a clear destination.

宿題

原則として、宿題の答えを求めたり、そのようなリクエストに対して答えを投稿しないでください。学生が自分で取り組むことで学習を進めるために宿題は課せられています。宿題に該当するようなトピックはクローズされます。

古いスレッド/"Necro-Bumping"

Do your part to keep the forums tidy. Posting in old threads, or "necrobumping" is generally discouraged in the technical issue subforums, since it can potentially create disjointed "zombie" information; outdated posts with data which is no longer relevant due to Arch's rolling nature, combined with more recent posts reflecting more current circumstance. Furthermore, technical support threads should remain succinct, and multiple pages are to be avoided if possible.

経験則

• If you have a question, start a new thread and link to the old if relevant.
• If you have something to add and judge that your information is related, but more up-to-date, start a new thread and link to the old if desired, but avoid duplicating effort by posting information already contained in the Arch wiki.
• If you have a version-agnostic or corresponding solution, necrobumping can be appropriate.

フォーラムメンバーのアカウント

Please limit your forum membership to one account only. Having multiple accounts is an unnecessary use of resources. Further, it may be interpreted as trolling behavior.

荒らしの禁止

A "troll" is a person who intentionally attempts to disrupt, cause controversy, incite an argument, and/or receive negative attention by deliberately posting provocative content. The term may also refer to the act of posting such content, or the content itself.

Trolls are generally deceitful and often use ambivalence as a method of covertly insulting, intimidating, or inciting a person or persons for their own sadistic pleasure. They often pick their words very carefully and are therefore able to defend their masked attempts at creating unrest, frequently redirecting the blame onto the community and its supposed failure to understand them properly. Trolling is strictly prohibited.

物議を醸すようなトピック

There is no explicit list of topics considered to be "trollish", controversial or provocative, but in the past, threads with posts pertaining to Religion, Sports, Race, Nationalism and Politics have invariably been closed. Therefore, specifically avoid these and all divisive topics on the Arch forums! The forum staff certainly realize that such issues are deeply ingrained human realities. However, this is a GNU/Linux distribution forum and is not intended nor able to effectively facilitate such commentary nor the resulting unrest.

パワーポスト/内容のない投稿の禁止

Power-posting is best described as posting empty and worthless messages. It is not tolerated. People may have two reasons to do this: to increase their post count meaninglessly, or to lend support to an idea as if it were a vote. Examples of power-posting include, but are not limited to, replying with "+1", "lol", "me too", "I agree", or ":)".

When posting or replying to messages, make sure you have something to say. These empty posts clutter up threads and discussion, invalidate the 'Show New Posts' function, and waste bandwidth and server space.

Threads that degenerate into a series of "+1/-1" or "me too/I agree/I disagree" will be locked. Individual power posts may also be deleted.

この世は持ちつ持たれつ

A simple, yet profound and undeniable truth. Ensure your thread includes details and information that others will find useful. Share your findings with the community. Share your failures as well. Posting the equivalent of "Nevermind, I fixed it." in your thread or deleting your own posts for similar reasons is not only selfish and useless to the community, but a complete waste of resources and everyone's time. Also, demanding help or showing an obvious impatience toward getting it is unwanted here. Arch is provided by a community of volunteers. Arch users are strongly encouraged to do research, make an effort, report back in the thread, help others, get involved, and contribute to the community.

Please do not be a "help vampire".

スレッド上げ

Posting a single word or useless message (bumping) to attract attention to your thread is not allowed. Do your own research, continue to troubleshoot, post the results, and be patient with the community. If people are reading your thread without answering or offering help, you may try supplying more details, or ask to be pointed in the right direction. Often, the reason for posts remaining unanswered is due in large part to the sparse details in the original post itself, or, the obvious availability of solutions in the wiki, on the forum or on the web, and the community's unwillingness to point out the obvious.

クロスポスト

クロスポストとは別々のサブフォーラムに同じ質問を何回も投稿することです (例えば、初心者コーナーとインストールの双方に投稿する)。クロスポストはリソースの無駄であり許されません。クロスポストされたトピックはすぐにロックまたは削除されます。

Arch Linux ディストリビューションのサポートオンリー

Arch-based distributions often use different packages, package versions, repositories, and make custom system configurations surreptitiously, constituting support for such projects quite impossible on the Arch forums. Community technical support shall only be provided for the Arch Linux distribution and the Arch User Repository. Threads concerning issues with, and requesting support for, derivate distributions, or operating systems other than Arch Linux are strictly prohibited and will be closed.

スレッド違い

Try to place your posts in the correct forum for the topic. Our forums have been carefully categorized so that most topics fit in one logical location. Any post that is deemed by the staff to be in the wrong forum will be moved to the correct location without warning. Most users can find these on their own but if you lose your thread, it is acceptable to contact one of the forum advisers asking where it has been moved.

スレッドの乗っ取り

Thread hijacking is the process of replying to an existing thread with a different topic. This is generally discouraged. It is better to start a new thread if you have a problem that is related to an existing posted issue but clearly different. Posts that hijack a serious thread with off-topic discussion are also discouraged.

フレーム

Flaming, in the most common sense definition, is directing negative, disrespectful, and/or insulting comments toward someone. An equally or more negative response, resulting in a cycling exchange of insults is often the consequence. Flaming fellow members (including the Arch team) will not be tolerated. Never resort to personal insults and please avoid sarcastic and patronizing language. Discussions can be productive, but quarreling is always destructive.

スタッフに敬意を

Members of The Forum Team have been chosen for their ability to exercise consistently good judgment and shall have the final say. Note that this forum is not run as a democracy. The forum staff shall always attempt to implement universally peaceful solutions, but in the end, are charged with the responsibility of maintaining peaceful, civil order for the forum majority. Therefore, they cannot always please everyone with the decisions made. Please do your part to contribute to a healthy community and environment.

• If you feel that an egregious oversight has been made, do NOT post complaints in forum threads - they will be quickly closed. Alternatively, use the forum report function, email a member of the moderator group, or email forum@archlinux.org to contact the forum admins.

警告, ユーザーロック, Ban

If the Arch Forum Moderation Team feels that a member's behavior is unacceptable and warrants intervention, a warning will typically be issued unless the occurrence is judged to be especially flagrant, in which case a ban may become imminent. Warnings will not be discussed on the Arch Forums, IRC channels, or mailing lists by the Moderation Team. If the warning goes unheeded, further action will be taken. This may range from locking the offending user account, to deletion or banning of the user, out of consideration for a peaceful forum and community. Action is generally on a case-by-case basis.

If a user is apologetic, interested in a peaceful solution and wishes to have their account reinstated, a general consensus will be formed by the moderation team for, or against, such a request.

投稿方法

• Choose clear, informative subjects. This is more likely to elicit response from experienced users who have knowledge about that particular topic. It also makes the topic easy to reference and find in forum searches by future users with similar problems. Further, avoid extraneous phrases such as [HELP!], [URGENT], etc.
• A sincere effort to use modest and proper language and grammar is a sign of respect toward the community that will certainly be appreciated and is quite likely to elicit positive responses. Please refrain from using so-called "textspeak", "netspeak", "leetspeak" and all other forms of internet slang.
• When asking questions, provide as much information as possible, including error messages, terminal output, logs, what you have previously tried, what documentation and searches you have attempted, and related configuration files.
• Choose one topic per thread. Long threads are typically discouraged in the technical issue subforums.
• Post your question in only one subforum; pick the most relevant, and post there.
• When responding to an existing thread, always read the original post and attempt to focus on the original topic.
• Finally, when a solution is found, mark your thread as solved by editing the first post and prepending the tag [SOLVED] to the title in the "Subject" field.
  Note that you should avoid using [CLOSED], which is instead used by the system to mark a thread which is no longer accessible for new posts.
• If a thread is marked as [SOLVED], do not reply stating the equivalent of "I am having a similar issue.."; start a new thread and link to the [SOLVED] thread, if relevant.

Dustbin ポリシー (Marked for Deletion)

Threads that are locked/closed because they are either already documented on the boards or Wiki or are inconsistent with the Arch Way will be moved to Dust/troll-bin. After a period of five days, the thread will be deleted. The Moderator responsible will clearly mark the thread as "Binned" or "For deletion."

適法性

このウェブサイトでは 犯罪教唆 は御法度です。これに関して"犯罪の教唆"とは"能動的または受動的に、他者に非合法または違法な行為を教える、またはそのような行為をすることを手助けする、扇動する、先導する、説得する"ことを意味します。

Therefore, do not post discussions about or link to criminal solicitation in any form. This includes, but is not limited to information or links to facilitate illegal drug use, theft, network intrusion, creation of code for malicious purposes, prohibited software copying, prohibited use of copyrighted/patented material, so-called "warez", or sites which provide torrents or links to such content. Illegal content will be removed swiftly and dealt with in full accordance with known applicable law.

自由

The free and open exchange of assistance, speech, ideas and opinions is highly regarded and encouraged on the forums, but it must be noted that the freedom granted to forum members is relative freedom. It exists within the boundaries of the above guidelines and principles. Complaints of censorship are therefore baseless and unfounded, since this necessary framework must simultaneously provide reasonable limitations. To illustrate, we are aware of the physical laws which govern energy and matter, yet we do not complain of their oppression. Instead, we recognize that such laws are essential for our welfare. Likewise, the Arch community's high standards reflected in these guidelines regulate community freedom for the common good and protection of all. The key, then, to true freedom on the forums is to cultivate benevolence toward others and harmonize our attitude with the Arch Way by bringing only benefit to our peers. In addition, this allows members to satisfy all contributive impulses without aggravating themselves or encroaching on the freedom of others. Embracing the above principles and obeying the forum guidelines therefore benefits the entire community by providing freedom from the harmful and negative consequences of a more chaotic approach.
