Gender-neutral prose[edit]

Having checked all of the listed references, only one used Keyworth's preferred personal pronouns, so the article should reflect the majority and use "she", "her", etc. Keyworth's preference should not be the overriding factor. Seasider53 (talk) 09:39, 8 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

According to the manual of style articles should: Refer to any person whose gender might be questioned with the name and gendered words (e.g. pronouns, man/woman/person, waiter/waitress/server) that reflect the person's most recent expressed self-identification as reported in the most recent reliable sources, even if it does not match what is most common in sources.

The statement given in "Personal life" is: "They are non-binary and use she/he/they/them pronouns". Does this mean we are free to use any of those pronouns, as the sources dictate? Or do we have to stick to "they" and "Keyworth"? Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 14:01, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry Matinevans123, I only just spotted your question. Since the "soft launch of ‘they’" in 2022 there does seem to have been a shift. Reviews of Keyworth's latest show "My Eyes Are Up Here" use a mixture of they and Keyworth: eg The Guardian, Broadway World, and Chortle.
Perhaps more importantly, the promotional materials for the show (eg) use they/their consistently. This would have been prepared by Keyworth and/or their agent so will presumably reflect their preferences. As that is the approach taken, I think using they/their and Keyworth in this article is in-line with policy and current usage. Richard Nevell (talk) 18:46, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds perfectly reasonable. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:54, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
