The article refers to a single person as if they were a group of people - for example it does not say "he..." it says "they..." - it is a misuse of language. 2A02:C7C:E183:AC00:60E1:9BC9:93D1:5E30 (talk) 21:06, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please see MOS:SINGULARTHEY. Nemo has said their pronouns in English are they/them. GorillaWarfare (she/her • talk) 21:17, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, "They" has been used as a singular, non-gender-specific pronoun in English since the Middle Ages. David (talk) 23:34, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You used singular they in that very sentence. Obelus1 (talk) 13:30, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sadly we live in a time were mental problems are celebrated and the english language is dead. Instead of adressing these mentally insane people correctly, we are forced to cater to their mental insanity and accept their stupidity, including their made up genders and "pronouns". It's sad that Wikipedia doesn't remain neutral and intelligent but caves in to the demands of the insane but that's why it's commonly called Wikishitia. 2003:ED:2F39:E01D:8B6:54E:70C5:B27 (talk) 01:16, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think I've ever heard the term "Wikishitia" until now. Why are you scared of pronouns anyway? You've used plural they and inclusive we in your response - those are pronouns HaapsaluYT (talk) 01:30, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is an incredibly problematic statement. Assuming these (queer) people with "mental problems" are "incorrect" in what is right for themselves, how does this make them insane? If they are insane, how does this make them stupid? This does not sound like criticism of Wikipedia or any ideology, this seems like prejudice and bigotry. Please educate yourself on language and queerness. Obelus1 (talk) 06:15, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"they" is used in most of the cases as plural pronoun, since he/she could not be used since non-binary the "it" should be used. 82.131.139.162 (talk) 23:15, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please see the link above for Wikipedia guidelines on pronouns. If the subject of a biographical article says they use they/them pronouns, Wikipedia does so as well. GorillaWarfare (she/her • talk) 23:57, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yyyeah, that’s not how pronoun preferences work, 82.131.139.162. — tooki (talk) 21:42, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"it" is a singular pronoun but is used for non-human things, "they" is (and has been) often used to speak about a singular person. Obelus1 (talk) 06:17, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 16 May 2024[edit]

change "Swedish" to "Swiss" in the following sentence

> In 2017, Nemo released the EPs Momänt-Kids (Swedish for "moment kids") and Fundbüro (German for "lost property office") also under the name Nemo (CH). 93.234.195.4 (talk) 21:15, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It does seem odd for it to be Swedish, but there's no single "Swiss" language (see languages of Switzerland) so that wouldn't make sense. Possibly it's Swiss German? Or possibly it really is Swedish for some reason. Then again the translation "moment kids" doesn't make much sense in English anyway, so I wonder if the whole sentence has been mistranslated from somewhere else. - IMSoP (talk) 09:51, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Re. Template:Article pronouns at beginning of this talk page - added archive page[edit]

https://archive.today/40Pem

Regarding This biographical article uses the pronouns they/them. See Instagram. Template:Article pronouns at top of the talk page (Special:Diff/1223097556).

Had added archive Instagram post of Nemo official account https://www.instagram.com/p/Czg2tCzIoZZ/ just in case that Instagram is gone as https://archive.today/40Pem (from (& also see) Special:Diff/1226861113). Internet Archive archiving failed henced using archive.today instead.

Also there's no such notice from Nemo official website https://www.nemothings.com/ yet, so far only on Nemo's official Instagram account.

Requested move 12 May 2024[edit]

Over 250 links are now broken - help requested in sorting these out 2A0A:EF40:277:FF01:B090:1457:CF1B:6603 (talk) 05:40, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Which links are broken? Citation/source links?, Wiki page links? Can you be more specific? --- Cat12zu3 (talk) 05:47, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I still saw redirect link to old Nemo (rapper). Here is WhatLinkHere to Nemo (singer) --- Cat12zu3 (talk) 05:53, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, based on what I saw and on another move that was processed by the same person the redirect did not seem in action here. All seems OK now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A0A:EF40:277:FF01:B090:1457:CF1B:6603 (talkcontribs) 06:06, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see. All is well OK. --- Cat12zu3 (talk) 06:47, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
