Insert the following definitions into Rule 3.1, maintaining alphabetical order of keywords:
Emperor
Generic synonym of Critic.Player
Generic synonym of Artist.
and append this text to the first paragraph:
A keyword defined in this glossary as a generic synonym is not affected (but the text of its definition is affected normally) by the replacement of a term with a theme-specific term throughout the entire ruleset.
If the terms Artist and Critic have been renamed since the creation of this proposal, then replace the same terms throughout the above text with their current versions.
This would allow theme-independent proposals or CfJs to use “Player” and “Emperor” without needing to worry about the terms changing prior to passage.
