 ## Consequences
 
-Upon receipt of a complaint, the project administrator(s) may take any action 
-deemed necessary and appropriate under the circumstances. Such action can 
-include things such as: removing, editing, or rejecting comments, commits, 
-code, wiki edits, email, issues, and other contributions that are not aligned 
-to this Code of Conduct, or banning temporarily or permanently any contributor 
-for other behaviors that are deemed inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or 
-harmful. Project Administrators also have the right to report violations to 
-UCAR HR and/or UCAR's Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (ODEI) as 
-well as a participant's home institution and/or law enforcement. In the event 
-an incident is reported to UCAR, UCAR will follow its Harassment Reporting 
-and Complaint Procedure.

 ## Process for Changes
 
-All UCAR managed projects are required to adopt this Contributor Code of 
-Conduct. Adoption is assumed even if not expressly stated in the repository. 
-Projects should fill in sections where prompted with project-specific 
-information, including, project name, email addresses, adoption date, etc. 
-There is one section below marked "optional" that may not apply to a given 
-project.
+All UCAR managed projects are required to adopt this Contributor Code of Conduct. Adoption is assumed even if not expressly stated in the repository. Projects should fill in sections where prompted with project-specific information, including, project name and adoption date.
 
-Projects that adopt this Code of Conduct need to stay up to date with 
-UCAR's Contributor Code of Conduct, linked with a DOI in the "Attribution" 
-section below. Projects can make limited substantive changes to the Code of 
-Conduct, however, the changes must be limited in scope and may not contradict 
-the UCAR Contributor Code of Conduct.

 ## Attribution
 
-This Code of Conduct was originally adapted from the Contributor Covenant, 
-version 1.4, available at [Contributor-Covenant](http://contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4). 
-We then aligned it with the UCAR Participant Code of Conduct, which also 
-borrows from the American Geophysical Union (AGU) Code of Conduct. The UCAR 
-Participant Code of Conduct applies to both UCAR employees as well as 
-participants in activities run by UCAR. We modified the "scope" section with 
-the django project description, and we added "Publication Ethics" from 
-the NGEET/FATES project. The original version of this for all software 
-projects that have strong management from UCAR or UCAR staff is available 
-on the UCAR website at [*Enter DOI link name*] (the date that it was adopted 
-by this project was [*Enter date adopted*]). When responding to complaints 
-UCAR HR and ODEI will do so based on the latest published version. Therefore, 
-any project-specific changes should follow the Process for Changes section 
-above.
-
-## Publication Ethics (optional)
-
-We aim to create an open development environment where developers can be 
-confident that all members of the community are publishing any research 
-on the project in an ethical manner. In particular, writing code is a form of 
-intellectual contribution, and one should expect that all such intellectual 
-contributions are respected and given credit in any resulting published work. 
-To support the community and avoid issues of misconduct related to the above 
-principle, please respect the following rules:
-
-* Document the version of the code used in any publication, preferably by 
-  either using a release tag (existing or newly created) if possible, or a 
-  commit hash if not.
-
-* Do not use code from anywhere other than the central project's development 
-  repository main development branch without discussing with the author(s) of 
-  the modified code your intentions for using the code and receiving their 
-  permission to do so.
-
-* When using project features that have recently been integrated into the 
-  central Project development repository, be mindful of the contributions 
-  of others and, where the novel features qualitatively affect the results, 
-  involve the author(s) of these features in any resulting manuscripts. 
-  Be particularly aware of the concerns of early career researchers, and 
-  ensure they have sufficient time to lead publications using their 
-  developments.
-
-* When discussing results arising from older project features that have been 
-described in the literature or releases, accurately cite the publications 
-describing those features or releases.
+This Code of Conduct was originally adapted from the [Contributor Covenant](http://contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4), version 1.4. We then aligned it with the UCAR Participant Code of Conduct, which also borrows from the American Geophysical Union (AGU) Code of Conduct. The UCAR Participant Code of Conduct applies to both UCAR employees as well as participants in activities run by UCAR.

The date that it was adopted by this project was April 2, 2025. When responding to complaints, UCAR HR will do so based on the latest published version. Therefore, any project-specific changes should follow the Process for Changes section above.
