Editing Skyscraper Wiki talk:Policy (section)

== Don't use sexist language (on content pages) ==

Even though most users [[Wiki|here]] and [[Forum|there]] are male, there are a few female users, so it is not a good idea to use "he", "him", and "his" to refer to a single person whose gender is unknown<nowiki>*</nowiki>. Rewording any sentence would be better like what I have done at [[June 12 2024 build|these]] [[Fountainhead City|pages]]. The only exception possible would be when "referring to other people when talking with each other on a user talk page."

<small><nowiki>*</nowiki>Even when the gender is known, it's still better to reword.</small>

:Good idea again, I will add that to the policy page and also consider a new filter dedicated to logging the use of he/him/his on mainspace pages. There's a few instances of this [[Talk:HP64 Integration Project|on]] [[Talk:CN Tower|discussion]] [[Category talk:Sumosoftinc's buildings|pages]], as well as LF and my user talk pages.
