[Wikipedia-l] Trigger Words

[Stephen Gilbert]

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?
