[Terminology] Guidance for NIST Staff on Using Inclusive Language in Documentary Standards (NISTIR 8366)

[Nick Doty <[e-mail]>]

Today, NIST has published this Internal Report on "using inclusive
language" publicly, in part because it may be useful to other standards
groups interested in clarity and inclusiveness of terminology.

Blog post/announcement:
https://www.nist.gov/news-events/news/2021/04/nists-inclusive-language-guidance-aims-clarity-standards-publications

NISTIR 8366:
https://doi.org/10.6028/NIST.IR.8366

I think both the blog post and the report itself do a good job of
describing the particular goals, including some examples (but not
especially long lists), and pointing to other resources that might be
useful for writing standards that are clear and respectful to a wide range
of readers.

Hope this helps,
Nick
