Talk:Charlyne Yi

message: I saw a few recent articles that showed Yi with they/them pronouns, while older ones show she/her.
Is there a source that show what Yi actually uses/prefers?

replies: text: I've seen recent articles (the ones about her criticism of Franco and Rogen) that use she/her pronouns. Yi's Instagram account used to have "they/she" in the bio, but otherwise I haven't been able find a source that shows what Yi uses or prefers. People keep changing the pronouns on this page without properly sourcing where they're getting this info from, so it would be nice to get a consensus on what Yi's pronouns actually are.

"Charlyne Amanda Yi[1] (born January 4, 1986)[1] is a Chinese-Filipino-American actress, "
But the "Early Life" section does not reference any Chinese lineage.
"Yi was born in Los Angeles, California. Her mother, a native of the Philippines, is of Filipino and Spanish descent[citation needed], and her father is of Mexican, Korean, Irish, German, French, and Native American ancestry."  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.9.64.4 (talk) 04:12, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

They could ALL be right. The facts from these are:
*21 years old in May 2007
*23 years old in September 2009
*20 years old in February 2007 (w/ another source saying 20 in 2007, moot point)
Someone could be 20 in February and 21 in May if their birthday fell between those two points. Being 23 by September 2009 would follow in due course.
The problem here is that Yi's date of birth would have to fall someplace between February 28, 1986 and May 31, 1986. January 4th does not fall within that 3 months span so I'm heavily skeptical about the claim this is her birthday. Pretty sure anybody can add info to FTL so I don't know if there's a guarantee that it was actually her or a reliable source who added the January 4th birthday.
Based on the Boyd/LaPorte interaction, it would seem to support being born in 86 and not 87, but only if you accept the premise that January 4 is the wrong birth date. 70.51.193.44 (talk) 07:45, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
thread_title: 4 sources to narrow date of birth

message: There is a discussion about Yi's pronouns at the top of this page, and there seem to be three different conclusions: They/Them, They/She, and She/Her. My view is that if we don't know, the best course of action is to keep the non-gendered pronouns as the article currently uses. If they are changed I will revert these changes, please don't start an edit war, contact me here.  Cassie Schebel, almost a savant. <3 (talk) 00:29, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Correct. They/them are their chosen pronouns, according to their official website, which is an allowed source for this (WP:SELFSOURCE): https://charlyne-yi.com/ -kotra (talk) 22:23, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pronouns 

message: I tried to read the beginning of this page, and it was unreadable...then I realized what was happening. The grammatical errors are to many to list. It's really a bad joke when plural pronouns are used for a single person. Very sad to see education and the english language being destroyed. 68.186.243.77 (talk) 00:59, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

thread_title:  Grammar 

message: Yi has expressed disdain for the use of the word "alleged" to undermine or disrespect abuse victims telling their stories, so I think the best course of action is to make it clear that these things are not necessarily proven (ie. no one has been convicted), without the use of this word. Per Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons, I think this is the way to be simultaneously factual, neutral, and respectful. A direct quote may serve this purpose better.
