deadname is the birth name of a person who has since changed their name (especially a transgender person).
== Sell, vend, petition, marketing for outside vendors policy? ==
Deadnaming is refusing to call a person by their name, only by their deadname.
I think this is a separate policy --[[User:Sbaker|Sbaker]] ([[User talk:Sbaker|talk]]) 23:08, 18 September 2018 (EDT)


== Overall Policy ==
== Sleeping ==
I think we should say we reserve the right to alter the policy at any time to meet our objectives. [[User:Jschrempp|Jschrempp]] ([[User talk:Jschrempp|talk]])
some makerspaces prohibit it (ie lying prone sleep) and not prohibit napping (sitting asleep).  Can we avoid til we have to add it?
 
Agreed. I added the below.  May be a big strong. [[User:Sbaker|Sbaker]]
 
''The Board of Supervisors reserves the right to alter or amend the rules as it determines appropriate for the safety of its members.
''
 
== Materials Move Around ==
I don't understand this: "Insure materials move around the facility and are stored in a safe and approved manner." [[User:Jschrempp|Jschrempp]] ([[User talk:Jschrempp|talk]])
 
I found this in one of the Maker Ethics, and it seems to be from the Dept of Labor, Materials and Handling Guidelines.
But I recall hearing similar in a couple of my classes.
It's to insure when move or store materials, you are safe about it.
For example:
* Don't walk thru the maker space with something dangerous (acid, etc) that's easy to spill.  Put a lid on it, etc.
* Don't store an acid in something it can eat thru sometime late at night when nobody is aroundKeep it in an approved container. AND Don't store a flammable in an open container.
* Be careful walking thru the makerspace with a long pole.  Recommend getting a partner so you can't swing it into anything unintentionally.
* Insure the board you want to cut can move thru the saw with clearance from front to back.

== Can members have guests and if so can a guest touch equipment or tools? ==
Yes, members can have guests.  However, I think insurance coverage will dictate the answer to the second part.
What does MN insurance say about guests touching equipment and tools?<br>
Would MN insurance cover if they slip and fell?  sew a finger?  hammer a thumb?  I suspect it depends a little on the tool.
 
To me this isn't Ethics and Conduct, it's the 'Guest Policy'.  If we do allow a guest they are bound by the same Ethics and Condust.

== When can a minor sign a waver and use equipment with adult supervision. ==
 
=Other Questions/Issues for Discussion=
* No drinking alcohol on premise?
 
* 'on premise' may be more than the building because of outdoor activities. I don't want people to leave pets in a car which is another risk.
 
* Sell, vend, petition, marketing for outside vendors policy?
 
* Prohibit sexual activity?
