[edit]Kiwiz1338, I did not understand your edit summary: let's not reinvent the wheel
. What exactly did you mean by that? Did you remove the content because it was unreferenced? I've added the pronouns used, including a reference for it, to the Wikidata item. Any objection to reinstating the content and adding that reference? Schwede66 02:03, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Schwede66 Sure, add it. But the article should refer to him as he, for consistency. I don't see the point in they when he can be used. Kiwiz1338 (talk) 04:58, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks! Schwede66 05:01, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Generally when multiple pronouns are given, it is the first one listed that is preferred. All the media articles have taken this on board, as well as official Green Party statements. The pronouns should be changed back to they/them. It comes across as transphobic to default to a binary pronoun just because you think it's easier. 203.211.77.22 (talk) 05:58, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- If reliable sources mostly use they/them, so should Wikipedia. Schwede66 18:02, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
