I couldn't find anything in the [[Bulbapedia:Manual of style|manual of style]] about this topic. I like the singular they (e.g. when referring to the [[player]]), but is there a standard convention?

:Not really, as far as I can tell. I do personally prefer "they", however, because it sounds more professional compared to "he or she" or "his or her", stuff like that. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 22:14, 3 October 2018 (UTC) | |||
