Hi, Appointing an editor (or editors) seems not a realistic solution, as it would be harder than resolving a disputed PR.
Forcing the code of conduct is not realistic either, as we have no means to force it. I advocate for adopting a policy such as David Roe suggested for disputed PRs, as we all can agree to accept it, and then disputed PRs are resolved by the common judgement of community members. The policy is nothing but a simple form of sage-devel votings that we are already used to.
