Open call
Propose a term, revision, or deprecation
The dictionary grows through community contribution. Working groups review proposals each release cycle. Contributors are credited (using CRediT) when proposals are accepted.
What working groups look for
- Terms that are genuinely missing — not synonyms of existing entries
- Operational definitions: how does someone decide whether a thing is an instance of this term?
- At least one worked example and one counter-example
- Citations / authoritative sources where applicable
- A clear fit with one of the 20 dictionary domains
If you're unsure whether your proposal fits, contact the relevant working group's chair first (linked from the per-WG pages below).
