I share Bastien's opinion. My experience with community building is
that describing and rewarding exemplary behavior is much more useful
than attempting to set strict rules of behavior. You need some basic
rules, but then emphasize describing excellence.
It's much better for people trying be "be like her, because everyone
respects and honors her", rather than following some set of detailed
rules.
