Inclusive language/es

Queremos promover una cultura de inclusividad y una parte es asegurarnos de que utilizamos un lenguaje apropiado donde podamos.

A pesar de que algunas personas afirmen que ciertas palabras no les ofenden o que las palabras no se crearon con dicha intención, deben de ser conscientes de que algunas palabras tienen el potencial de resultar ofensivas para otros grupos de personas. Nosotros nos esforzamos para eliminar su uso.

Este esfuerzo también nos ayuda a cumplir con nuestro compromiso con el :

"Con la intención de fomentar una comunidad abierta y amable, nos comprometemos a que la participación en los proyectos técnicos de Wikimedia sean respetuosos y una experencia libre de acoso para todos[...]"

It is noted that there are some cases where we may not be able to change/remove some of our usages of these words, such as until the upstream developers has fixed them and it trickles down into our deployed software. This is okay as it is out of our control. It could be worth checking with the upstream if they plan to fix similar issues in their own codebases. However, we can and should address these words in our codebases when we are able to.

How to help
If you're looking to help with this effort, is a good starting point for some discussion around the issue, and also to find specific tasks for areas of code that needs updating.

Some of these may be as simple as updating/improving comments and variable names.

Others may be more complex and need functions and hooks renaming, while following our.

Some usages may need to stay around for longer, but will generally stop being the canonical code, showing the intention for this to be removed in the near future.
