You have vandalized the Envy article by saying "their" or "they" instead of it. How can one person be a "they" or "their"? Learn how to read and use proper grammar and punctation, buddy. RollOverTheFloor (talk) 20:21, April 16, 2016 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks so much for your input. Next time you feel I've vandalized a page, please report it to an admin or moderator. The way you, a regular contributor, handled 'correcting' the page - through inappropriate language and half a dozen edits in two days - is in bad taste. In regards to the context of your post - if you have ever taken an English class, you would be aware that English lacks a singular gender-neutral pronoun. Typically, the terms 'he,' more modernly 'she,' and more frequently 'they,' are used in place of this lacking pronoun, never 'it' for a person. If you want proof, Google a reliable grammar source or go ask an English professor at your university and see what they think. 'They' has been in use for years as the English gender-neutral singular pronoun. However, Envy is in fact male, so 'he' would work equally well as their pronoun. While we're discussing gender-neutral terms, 'buddy' is not one. When you don't know the gender of another person, use a gender-neutral expression or don't use one at all.

TL;DR: Take care of your Wiki by reporting vandalism to someone with the experience and ability to correct others on it. Study up on English grammar, particularly singular gender-neutral pronouns. I'm a girl, not a 'buddy.'  Nice meeting you. Eirianwen (talk) 11:54, April 17, 2016 (UTC)
