'''Incident reports''' are a special class of articles on RACKWiki that discuss specific incidents where harm occurred or could have occurred. Due to the sensitive nature of this content, incident reports can only be written and edited by RACKWiki staff and will adhere to the policies described in this article. Official incident reports will always exist in the <span class="plainlinks">[https://rackwiki.org/wiki/Special:AllPages?from=&to=&namespace=4238 "Incident" namespace]</span>. Unofficial incident reports or discussion of a non-official incident within another article will always be removed and the user who submitted the content may have their authorship privileges revoked. | '''Incident reports''' are a special class of articles on RACKWiki that discuss specific incidents where harm occurred or could have occurred.

== Information gathering and selection == | |||
Community-submitted Incident Reporting Forms are the primary method for RACKWiki editorial staff to gather information from primary sources. Follow-up questions may be required, so we encourage form submitters to allow us to contact them. | |||

Each incident is assigned to a member of the RACKWiki editorial staff to draft a report. The draft is reviewed by at least one other staff member prior to publication. | |||
== Style guide == | == Style guide == | ||
Incident reports are meant to be objective analyses of near-fatal or fatal events. The style guide is used to ensure that information is presented in a consistently clear, concise, and unbiased manner. | |||
=== Identification of subjects === | |||
By default the subject of the report will not be named. Subjects will only be named under the following circumstances: | |||
# In a non-fatal incident, the subject submitted an incident reporting form and requested to be identified. | |||
# In a fatal incident, a minimum of three close friends and/or family request that the subject be identified in the report. RACKWiki staff will make best efforts to corroborate and confirm the relationships, but will default to anonymizing the subject if they can not obtain insufficient proof of consent. | |||
