:::How does having it in the infobox help us ensure its up to date? A lot of our pages are out of date as is. Not saying it's a bad idea, I just don't know how it improves the current situation.

:::Pronouns in the article and infobox would likely be updated at the same time. If the pronouns in the infobox are out of date, so is the pronouns in the article. If the pronouns in the article are out of date, so is the infobox. Any link in the infobox could be linked in the article. Given many of the things that report pronouns that can be linked aren't static and pronouns could be changed without notice, that could easily be out of date without an archive link... which would then be out of date if the pronouns change. Something like a tweet or video stating the pronoun preference would be the only thing that could be linked properly, but again that can be linked in the article. --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 10:53, April 24, 2022 (EDT) | :::Pronouns in the article and infobox would likely be updated at the same time.

:'''Oppose'''; I agree with the others, it would be redundant while Smasher infoboxes can already get quite large, and a pronouns entry won't just magically correct itself, making it no more helpful to correcting article text. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 13:00, April 24, 2022 (EDT) | |||
