Review the ULMS Subject Norm Rule

The group reviewed the Subject Norm Rule by walking through each rule to determine it’s structure and function. Once the the group got to the DEI subject rules, the conversation changed to reviewing the COLD recommendations and determining what was missing. (see next item)

Review Cold Requirements & Updated Rule

The group reviewed the COLD requirements and agreed that several recommendations were missing. @Christian Ward (Unlicensed) added additional checks to the norm rule that the group reviewed. A few minor changes were made during the meeting, but the group will review the changes offline. CSUB offered to help test the rule.

It was noted that the most general 650 rule contains a single word transformation, Aliens → Noncitizens. It was the group’s consensus that the intended use of Aliens should relate to immigration, and that other terms such as Alien abduction, Aliens in film, Alien plants, etc. could be affected by the transformation. This can be resolved with an additional condition.
