I'd like to request from admin edits of older puzzles for conscious language. Since many words were once "acceptable" but are slurs, they have been removed from usage, and I found the use of a slur in #145948503 jarring. I believe I've skipped puzzles before for this as well. Thanks for looking into it.

I have no idea how to check the number of the puzzle referred to above, but if it is the one I think it might be, I tend to agree. I'm going to be explicit with my comments. The puzzle that I am thinking of refers to a team named the Indians. I get that in the United States there are still teams with names like this, despite the fact that the term is acknowledged, in general, as a racial slur. However, in Canada we simply no longer use this term and I also find this puzzle jarring and won't play the puzzle because of it. I don't know how easy it is to go back and edit a word in the puzzle, but if it is possible to do so, changing the team name to some other commonly used team name would seem appropriate.
