edit- Good idea, but extremely hard to implement for some languages. Did some work on this a few years back and everything worked out nicely. Then I started to look at badwords from a county in Norway called Nordland. In that area people can create badwords by joining an animal name and names for genitalia, but in some combinations it might not be a bad word at all. If you call a man a "måspeis" (dick of a seagull) it will be interpreted as an insult, while a "hestpeis" (dick of a horse) can be both an insult and a positive superlative. To further confuse the matter a "peis" could also be a "fireplace". Yes it is possible, but it is not trivial. [I wrote a page about this, and proposed to add it to AbuseFilter. You need initial steems, midsteams, and final steams, and then affixrules for how to join them. The results must be weighted, as not all of the possible words are bad. That is the hard problem.] [Sort of endorse, but the idea is way to sketchy. I tried to hammer out a proposal on Grants:IdeaLab/BadWords detector for AbuseFilter.] — Jeblad 10:04, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
- Good idea, vandalism reports of a personal attac may collect such words. When used outside quotation or more often by a user, an automatic vandalism report should generated to make an administrator review the edit. --Hans Haase (talk) 10:34, 12 June 2016 (UTC)

Project plan
editActivities
editThe Energy Awareness Community Meeting as described on www. indiegogo.com is a "grass roots" action to circumvent the political interference bought by "Big Oil". Carbonless fuels exist but why bother if it connotes "tree huggers" and Communists (exaggeration)?
Budget
editHall rental $1,000 Catered meals $1,000 Videographer and Streaming $1,000 Copy/ Mail DVDs $1,000 Incidental expenses $1,000 Total $5,000 (estimated)
Community engagement
editOne ticket costs $100 USD and gives the attendee 20 minutes of lecture time to reveal their proposal. Networks and cooperation develop on site and afterwards with distribution of DVDs Awareness will be obvious of the Department of Energy funding GE for inefficient windmills and distractions, i.e. The Office of Fossil Fuels becomes public information. The community gains as the originator of a series of networks that usurp the status quo of energy use though annual meetings and collaborative projects.
Sustainability
editEnthusiastically, I envision 100 Energy Awareness Community Meetings over a Century progressing towards independent, carbonless, and affordable energy-everywhere. The existing process is finite, harmful, and extremely defensive. If "It" happens, the Energy Awareness Community Meeting must be capable of operating as a subculture since commercial investment is not likely.
Measures of success
editThe first measure of success will be the network established after the first meeting. Attendance is expected to be low at the first meeting however a few effective individuals might become acquainted. Subsequent meetings and products develop into sustainable residences versus the predictable behavior of people who will become desperate when oil markets begin to fail.
