Description
In _locales/ja/messages.json, the Japanese translation uses "ブラックリスト" for blacklist. I propose changing this to a more neutral and inclusive term (for example: "ブロックリスト").
Relevant line:
- File: _locales/ja/messages.json
- Current:
"message": "ブラックリスト"
Proposal:
- Change "ブラックリスト" to "ブロックリスト".
Reason (理由):
- 日本語: 「ブラックリスト」は人種や色に結びつく表現を想起させる可能性があり、人権や包括性の観点から中立的な表現に置き換えるべきです。日本語では「ブロックリスト」が自然で受け入れられやすい表現です。
- English: The term "blacklist" can evoke associations with race or exclusion; out of respect for human rights and to adopt neutral, inclusive language, it should be replaced. In Japanese, "ブロックリスト" is a natural and widely understood alternative.
Thank you for considering this update for the project.
