- Depreciation is a reason not to bring it back. But "it" is no better. If I remember my English classes, it might be preferable just to choose either "he" or "she"--or just "he or she". --Neumannz, The Dark Falcon 02:23, May 25, 2010 (UTC)
Why don't we use "the character"? or the MoS has something against it too?
