Add bug report (no space) to the list.

Subject of the feature

I recently learned that the phrase "bug report" without a space in the middle can be offensive. Here's a link to the racial slur.

Without the space it essentially reads as <racial-slur>port or <racial-slur>town.

Suggested alternatives would be "snapshot" or any phrasing which makes sure to separate the words: "bug report, bug-report".

Does this seem like something worth adding?

Oh interesting! That term, bugre, is a Portuguese word, no?

We do maintain a list of Brazilian Portuguese slurs, and this one isn’t listed, so we can add bugre there: https://github.com/words/cuss. Although it seems like it’s also the name for a region in Brazil?

I do wonder about <racial-slur-in-other-language>port. A different example is Google’s own pik project. And what about English words that include English stuff? such as scuntthorpe?

The divide between the two projects, profanities and equality, is that the former is more of an unambiguous list of offensive terms where no suggested alternative is needed, whereas the latter is more an it depends, and hence often comes with explanations and suggestions. So I think it makes more sense in retext-equality? E.g.,

- type: basic
  note: The word `bugre` is a slur in Portuguese
  considerate:
    - bug report
    - snapshot
  inconsiderate:
    - bugreport

In race.yml?
