Update Wikipedia

Wikipedia continues to use archaic and harmful terminology when describing the inclusion of science in sports.

As the world’s largest encyclopedia, Wikipedia is the most comprehensive and most accessible compilation of knowledge to exist in the history of the human race. Accordingly, such a source of information should be unbiased and unprejudiced, in all fields, from politics to sports.

It is up to you, as the backbone of the Enhanced Movement, to ensure that Wikipedia uses enhanced inclusive language when discussing performance therapies, and the use of performance enhancements by professional athletes.

Our guide on non-discriminatory language can be found on the Inclusive Language page. As a rule, any reference to ‘cheating’ and ‘performance enhancing drugs’ ought to be replaced with enhanced inclusive terms, like ‘demonstrations of science’ and ‘performance enhancements’. ‘Doping’ is a slur and has no acceptable alternative.

A list of articles that contain discriminatory language is shown below. We trust you to do what is right, and scrub bigotry from Wikipedia.

Example of Harmful Language		A Better Alternative
Doping		As with other slurs, there is no acceptable alternative
Performance Enhancing Drugs		Performance enhancements
Cheated		Fought for science and bodily sovereignty
World Record		Natural World Record
Clean		Natural
Unnatural		Enhanced
