Probably a little too broad to strictly enforce in the same way that the existing words might be, but a useful resource for sure. To take an example, I notice that "australian" is listed, but that is a newspaper of some reknown as well as a word without negative connotations in many contexts.

The list is too long to give each word proper treatment; nor would that be necessary in most cases. Most of these are not words that have never been used in the sort of discourse this project is aiming to improve.

Given that the IETF has consensus to rely on NISTIR 8366, this seems overtaken by events.
