I'd say I agree. "calm" reads a lot better without assuming that uncivil discussion will take place. I also think that if this is done, "as we try to resolve this issue" should be rewritten to be "as issues are resolved". The way it currently reads sounds like a section header for a specific issue. However, in the page I saw this being used, it was as a talkpage header generally talking about all discussions on the page. Blake(

Comment. Even though the
first four transclusions of the {{Calm}} template are used as talk page headers, I found that the 5th one,
Talk:Massimo family, uses Template:Calm as it was meant to be used, i.e., as a section header. So if these two are merged, the wording will have to fit both talk page header and section header. Something like:
Please be calm and civil when you make comments or when you present evidence, and avoid personal attacks. Please be patient as we work toward resolution of an issue in a peaceful, respectful manner.
