Are you including inducing biases as part of "debiasing"?

I probably should. This is usually called "rebiasing."

I suggest making it a separate category, at least to start with. It will be easier to recombine them into debiasing later if it turns out the distinction makes little sense and there is a range of anti-biasing from debiasing to rebiasing, than it would be to separate them after everything is filled in.
