Roddy's right in that if people abuse the existence of a list by going to every length to say words on chat that aren't yet on the list, that should be punishable as trolling. Common sense should still exist in that sense. And I also think the list should be a group effort, and Rome and others should be able to help with that. It is intended to be a whole system that everyone who chooses to could contribute to. Just curious, what's the safeguard for people who want to say that words such as "Christian" or "Muslim" or "communism" are not offensive words to them? Is it safe to assume they're trolling or would we have to seriously cater to those requests? Or does common sense fill in the gaps and apply in those cases? Because I do want everyone to contribute to such a list but there would have to be some arbiter, whether that be the admins or common sense or both, to be able to determine whether or not the requested words to be added are of a legitimately offensive or inappropriate nature or not.

I don't see how such words like those are exactly offensive in their own right. This is about words that are actually going to cause offense. If people are actually going to try to put those words on the list, I expect full protest from this wiki.
