This article is earnestly written to use a recent definition of the word 'they', but it's almost impossible to tell if 'they' is supposed to be a singular pronoun referring to the article's topic, or the group of people that this person is interacting with.

Whoever guards this article, please pick one of English's two exclusively singular third person pronouns that are used to refer to people, namely he or she.

Thanks for your comment, 'they' is a common pronoun that non-binary people use, but you're right, according to MOS:GENDERID we should use the one the subject appears to have been most comfortable with - in this case 'his'. Lajmmoore (talk) 08:46, 2 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

That means you should go and fix it, Lajmmoore. ~~ Attila412 (talk) 08:41, 10 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello @Attila412 - thanks for the comment. Perhaps you'd like to do it? I think the more people that contribute to pages, the better they become! Lajmmoore (talk) 08:20, 11 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
