I really appreciate this post; thank you for making it. I had many of the same accessibility concerns about that list, and it's such a relief to see it all spelled out like this.
We have and have had our own accessibility issues at KB, of course, and it's all an ongoing process - but I found that writing the shorter kink descriptions last year, and then making kink_wiki this year, really forced eruthros and I to confront each kink and what kinds of potentially problematic issues they might be drawing on - like, it was a really useful process for us because it forced us to think through the difficult aspects of some kinks that we hadn't stopped to think about before. So I feel like, in addition to helping the players out, the mods of any such challenge that uses broad prompt terms would really benefit from making a wiki or set of descriptions or something, because in that exercise issues of ablism, racism, misogyny, etc., are much more difficult to avoid.
