take the time to read them.

<h2>Rules</h2>
29-
30-
<ol>
31-
<li><a href="http://chat.stackoverflow.com/faq#nice">Be nice.</a></li>
32-
<li>No swearing. Expletives are <a href="https://meta.stackexchange.com/a/22233/162650">not acceptable behavior</a> on any Stack Exchange site.</li>
33-
<li>If nobody responds to your question, that means no-one in the room is able to help (either because they don't know,
34-
or are too busy to answer right now). Please don't spam the room with further requests for help on the same question.
35-
It will only annoy people and make them less likely to want to help you in future.</li>
36-
<li>Especially don't use <code>@username</code> notification unless that user has already told you it's okay to ping them; <em>that's like
37-
jabbing someone in the shoulder and saying "Hey! Answer me!"</em>, and will quickly mark you out as someone to be avoided.</li>
38-
<li>However it is acceptable (and encouraged) to <code>@username</code> people where it assists in the flow of existing conversations.</li>
39-
<li>Cute fluffy animals (especially kittens and puppies) are cool, okay!?</li>

<h3>Posting Question/Answer Links</h3>
43-
44-
<ol>
45-
<li>Do not link your recent (< 1-2 days) questions in the room. The main site is the dedicated space for posting questions,
46-
and having them answered.</li>
47-
<li>If you have posted a question on the main site and a significant amount of time has passed without receiving a
48-
satisfying answer, then you can discuss your question in the room.</li>
49-
<li>You should never simply link your question into the chat room without staying to discuss it and should usually
50-
only link it when having been asked by others.</li>
51-
<li>Linking questions which are not your own recently posted questions is alright as long as it serves a
52-
purpose, and you are willing to discuss answering it, or are suggesting it be closed.</li>
53-
</ol>
54-
55-
<h3>Asking a question</h3>
56-
<ol>
57-
<li>You do not need to ask if it’s okay to ask a question.</li>
58-
<li>You may ask your question without a preamble.<br />
59-
For example, you do not need to say “anyone here know Django?” before asking a question about Django. Even if you
60-
do, the Django experts in the room might not step forward until hearing the actual question. They may not wish
61-
to commit themselves to help until they know how much effort it will entail.</li>
62-
<li>Only paste code directly into chat if it is not very long.<br />
63-
There is no hard limit, but about a dozen lines is acceptable. For longer code, use an external paste tool such
64-
as <a href="http://dpaste.org/">dpaste</a>.</li>
65-
<li>Double check that your code is properly formatted.<br />
66-
For a multi-line post to retain its indentation, every line (including empty lines) must be preceded with four
67-
spaces. Paste your text and indent it with <kbd>Ctrl+K</kbd>. Alternatively, press the <em>“fixed font”</em>
68-
button that appears next to <em>“send”</em> and <em>“upload”</em> when your post is more than one line long.</li>
69-
<li>Don’t star posts to reward users for answering your question.<br />
70-
For most users, your gratitude is reward enough. Alternatively, if your question meets StackOverflow’s standards,
71-
you may post your question there, and invite the answerer to make a reply which you may accept.</li>
72-

<h3>Rules</h3>
16+
17+
<p>As with any community, we have our own set of rules and etiquette. Please be considerate and take the time to read and follow them. If you are disruptive, users may not want to interact with you in the future. Room owners will use their <a href="https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/271267/a-guide-to-moderating-chat">moderation tools</a> to keep the room on track.</p>
18+
19+
<ul>
20+
<li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/help/be-nice">Be nice.</a></li>
21+
<li>No swearing or crude language. It is <a href="https://meta.stackexchange.com/a/22233/162650">not acceptable</a> on Stack Overflow.</li>
22+
<li>If nobody responds to you, that means no one is able to right now. Don't spam the room with further requests.</li>
23+
<li>Don't ping (<code>@username</code>) users unsolicited. Use pings when they assist the flow of existing conversations.</li>
24+
<li><a href="https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/57286/which-links-and-sites-are-handled-specially-in-chat">Inlined links</a>, images, and animations may be removed if they are too big or distracting. Use them sparingly.</li>
25+
<li>Wait to post until you've written a complete sentence. Avoid rapid, short "stream of conciousness" messages. Avoid using abbreviated "txt spk".</li>
26+
<li>Use the menu to the left of your message to edit or remove it within the two minute edit period.</li>
27+
<li>We can provide help with community moderation, but continued heated or negative discussion is not healthy for the room.</li>
28+
<li>Cute fluffy animals are cool, okay!?</li>
29+
</ul>
30+
31+
<h4>Asking a Question</h4>
32+
33+
<ul>
34+
<li>Don't ask for answers to your recent Stack Overflow questions. Those who can answer are already watching the queue on the main site.</li>
35+
<li>If your question is <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/help/bounty">eligible for a bounty</a> (>= 48 hours old) and hasn't received a useful response, then you may link to it.</li>
36+
<li>Ask your question directly. Avoid asking if it's okay to ask, or if anyone knows about a topic. Users may want to see your question before speaking up, and users who join later can see it.</li>
37+
<li>If your code is longer than about 12 lines, use an external paste tool such as <a href="http://dpaste.com">dpaste.com</a>.</li>
38+
<li><a href="{{ url_for('wiki.detail', title='An Illustrated Guide To Formatting Code In Chat') }}">Format your code.</a> Inline code should be enclosed in backticks (<code>`code`</code>). For multi-line posts, every line including empty ones must be indented by 4 spaces. Paste your code and press <code>Ctrl + K</code> or the <em>"fixed font"</em> button. Use <code>Shift + Enter</code> to insert new lines.</li>
39+
<li>Ask about Python. Go to a relevant room to ask about other languages or topics, even if that room is less active.</li>
40+
<li>Follow the same guidance as the main site. Accurately and concisely describe the problem. Provide a <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/help/mcve">Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable Example</a>.</li>
41+
<li>Search and research before asking. Try running your code. Try using a debugger.</li>
42+
<li>Chat is not a substitute for reading a tutorial or taking a class.</li>
43+
<li>Don't star posts to reward users for answering your question. Your gratitude is reward enough. If your question meets Stack Overflow's standards, you may post your question there and invite the user to post an answer which you may accept.</li>
44+
</ul>
45+
46+
<h4>cv-pls</h4>
47+
48+
<p>You may see messages starting with <code>cv-pls</code> or similar tags. These are used to assist in community moderation. If you wish to participate, please read our <a href="{{ url_for('wiki.detail', title='cv-pls') }}">cv-pls policy</a>.</p>
