This module will periodically present you with "what would you do?" scenarios - hypothetical accounts of difficult situations. The goal is to encourage you to think about the different types of situations you may encounter, and the many issues and decision points that affect any eventual outcome, rather than to look for an objectively "correct" single answer.

Your relatively small-scale event is taking place in a conference venue with multiple spaces, that can be made available to different conferences at any given time. While your event is ongoing, another Wikimedia event is hosted in one of the venue’s spaces, adjacent to yours. During breaks participants of both events are able to wander through communal spaces of the venue.

You are notified by one of your event participants (person A) that they met another person attending the other event (person B) when they spent time in the communal spaces with other participants of your conference. Since then, person A has been receiving unwanted invitations to hang out by person B, despite politely declining them and explicitly stating they are not interested. Those invitations never happen when other participants of your event are present; only when person A is at a relative distance from others.

If you were in this situation... what would you do? Leave your thoughts here.
