ThePledge of Tranquility, also known as theTranquility Pledge,Dewikipedihol, theControl Pill, theTranquilizer or theTranquil Gun, (PoT) is an optional but recommended expression of tranquility when editing for theWikipedia community. It is created to prevent the dangerousEditing Under the Influence from happening, thus making Wikipedia a safer environment.
The name is taken from thePledge of Allegiance, with the 'Allegiance' section changed to 'Tranquility', which originated from the word 'Tranquilizer', a drug that is used to reduce anxiety, fear, tension, agitation, and related states of mental disturbance.[1] The term 'Dewikipedihol' is clearly taken from theWikipedihol.
