I notice User:G0T0 recently added Jones' stage name from college, "Lindsay Kavlin". I'm not sure that this is a notable enough fact about her to include (it seems to only be publicly known because of an obscure reference in an episode of Theater Mode, as cited in the article). Besides that, it feels a little bit like a WP:BLPPRIVACY invasion. She has not publicly used the name since her rise to notability or her time at Rooster Teeth, and the name appears to reveal information about her pre-Rooster Teeth personal life that otherwise wouldn't be easily found (the Wix site and old college-age resume cited in the article are examples of this). In the interest of erring on the side of caution per WP:BLPPRIVACY, I'm gonna go ahead and boldly remove the reference to the name. -IagoQnsi (talk) 19:44, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It appears this is a contentious issue on this article as there's been several cases of people editing and reverting others due to this. Per MOS:GENDERID, Wikipedia uses the preferred pronouns of the subject of an article. In this case, Jones has signified that "They/Them" is the preferred pronoun usage. Even if "She/Her" is acceptable, it isn't the preferred pronouns to use. This is sourced by the Twitter citations in the main body article. Per WP:RSPTWITTER, while Twitter is generally unreliable, it is fine to use if it comes from a verified account and is uncontroversial. The tweets are from Jones' verified account on Twitter, and per WP:ABOUTSELF, it follows the necessary requirements to make it uncontroversial. For this reason, the article should use the "They/Them" pronouns. I'll hold off from editing to see if anyone disagrees and so consensus can be reached.

Endorse switch to "they/them". I looked at the tweet that's cited in the article:
Prefer they/them from the community, but am okay with she/her [1]
I had not seen this quoted before; from this context, it makes clear a preference and not an either/or situation.
There is one place in the personal life section where the flow could get awkward, but I think the article makes clear when it's Jones and spouse and when it's just Jones. There are also some credits currently listed as "Herself"; the reflexive form would be "Themselves" in those usages, correct? —C.Fred (talk) 16:36, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Themself is generally accepted in most LGBT communities, in my experience. StarCommanderVong (talk) 22:45, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
