- NateEag 6y agoWatchlist? Suspectlist? Not sure I like either of those options, just the first things that came to mind. I think I'm in favor of changing these terms, because the proposed replacements are clearer about what happens with the list's contents, and the original phrases are rooted in some analogies that are definitely problematic. No, they don't really have those meanings any more, but changing them sends a signal to the people who could be hurt or offended by the terms that we want them to be welcome.
