"Inclusivity Notes" Are notes featured in written or spoken language to provide context critical to inclusivity.
Similarly to "Trigger Warnings", Inclusivity Notes are placed at the top of a body of text, page, or at the beginning of the text it is relevant to.
It is inappropriate to feature Inclusivity Notes after the text they are relevant to, such as one would with a typical use of an asterisk (*) & a footnote at the end.
This is problematic as some would have to disrupt the flow of information to keep up. Such as with textbooks in classes or documents in meetings.
It is also inappropriate to feature Inclusivity :Notes within parentheses so as to be cited but not read alone.
Formal use of Inclusivity Notes should be in bold, or noted with asterisks at the beginning & ending of of the term. Then followed be a semicolon, the type of note, & detailes on the second line. Such as:
*Inclusivity Note: Example*
This is only an example.
Inclusivity Notes may be used to advise individuals such as Neurodivergents about upcoming "non-literal language".
One can also use Inclusivity Notes to advise a Native Language Audience about Foreign Language present, or Second Language Audiences of elusive terms to know in advance. Such as those that do not translate.
Among other applications. Inclusivity Notes can also be used for those with different abilities or disabilities. Such as making more elaborate explanations for visual language that might otherwise exclude Blind Communities.
