Policy Suggestion

Gender-neutral pronouns

In stark opposition to user L33tminion, I believe Wikipedia should not adopt a policy to disuse 'he', 'him' and so on as gender-neutral pronouns. The English language works perfectly well as it is. Wikipedia should credit its readers with enough intelligence to understand that the use of 'he' does not imply that the undefined person in question can only be male. The moment the English decide to use 'he or she' or worse, 'they' - every time 'he' should be used - will be a sad day.
