I'm very knowledgeable about homelessness and homeless policy in the United States. If you need to refer to me with a third-person pronoun, do what you like. If I were to write about myself in the third-person, I would use he-set pronouns.
I am a pending changes reviewer. While the policy is fairly clear on reviewing pending changes, reality can sometimes be a little messier: We're trying to combat vandalism, which means that the context is a little different from that of normal editing in which we assume good faith. I check sources before accepting pending changes. I usually include comments when I reject a change to explain my reasoning. If you made a good faith edit & I rejected it, check the history. If you make the edit again, you can explain why I'm wrong in your edit comment; if it's a bigger issue, you can start a conversation on the talk page.
Ethnologue should not be considered a reliable source. (But it is, unfortunately, generally accepted as one for Wikipedia [1], & sloppiness in academic publishing means that it's likely to remain one.) In fact, the quality of Ethnologue for relatively poorly documented languages is astonishingly bad.
Most user-made maps are WP:OR (& frequently bad R), & should be deleted.
90% of editing of lead paragraphs is of no value or of negative value. 90% of editors who only edit lead paragraphs & infoboxes are doing more harm than good.
