Provide:
1. LANGUAGE AUDIT: Flag specific words or phrases that could be:
   - Gendered when they do not need to be
   - Exclusionary to people with disabilities
   - Culturally insensitive or ethnocentric
   - Jargon that creates unnecessary barriers
   - Age-biased in either direction
2. REWRITE: Full revised version with inclusive alternatives

Tips

• Inclusive language evolves - review your style guide annually
• Focus on people-first language: 'person with a disability' not 'disabled person' unless the community prefers identity-first
• Test content with diverse reviewers from the target audience
• Readability benefits everyone not just non-native speakers - aim for grade 8 level
