Template:Rfcid To protect the integrity of Wikipedia in the public eye and particularly among academic faculty,as well as persons impacted by prejudice and discrimination, the proposal is that eng.wikipedia adopt naming conventions on "hate speech words" which should include parethetical tag such as:

Main-name #Slang; derogatory#

Noting that this is not in any manner "censorship" as the content itself remains intact under this proposal, and that such entries are lexical #dictionary-like# to begin with and as such barely pass muster as admissible content. Bard गीता 01:57, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You are posting this in the wrong place. You cannot propose policy changes on an article talk page. AndyTheGrump (talk) 01:58, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well then at least as pertains to THIS article. Bard गीता 02:20, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Note: Moved from Talk:Chink#Formal RFC on Naming convention for slang which is derogatory of persons and races, copied verbatim. —James ^{(Talk • Contribs)} • 2:09pm • 04:09, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
