I've been periodically searching for profanity in order to catch vandalism that may have slipped under the Recent Changes radar.

Whatever the page is called, it should be in the Wikipedia: namespace. Direct URLs would be most useful. Is there an existing page that could be used for this purpose?

Hi,

it occurred to me that certain words may well be used as search patterns to find low quality and non-NPOV articles. For example, there is hardly any valid encyclopedic use for the word "ironically" -- I have tried to go through the articles that contain it and fix them one by one, but there are too many of them. Other emotional words such as "bizarre", and vulgar ones, such as "stupid" and "crap", may also be useful for finding articles that need to be edited.

How about a page that lists such "trigger words" for others to search for them and fix the articles that contain them? Where should such a page be put?

Regards,

Erik
