Nationality
[edit]Preemptively opening discussion because sources seem to conflict. I went with Canadian-American
because it was in the first source I saw. List of sources:
one of the more famous Canadians (to be fair, Canadian-American)
(CBC)Canadian
(Yahoo!)American-born, Canadian-raised
(Hallmark Channel)American & Canadian
(UCB)
The latter two are non-independent. Born in America, raised in Canada, works in America → ?. Hameltion (talk | contribs) 15:09, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
Vic
[edit]If you could please stop changing my page I would greatly appreciate it. Yours truly, Vic. 2600:100C:B253:76E7:A43D:DD83:41D3:9FE3 (talk) 02:09, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- There is no way to verify that you are actually Vic Michaelis. As such, we have to go off of the available sources. All of the sources listed use they/them pronouns, aside from the Screen Rant article, which doesn't specify one way or another. If you have a verifiable source in which Michaelis clarifies that she/her is preferred over they/them, please add it! But without a source saying so, it really does seem like they/them is the way to go. A social media post or prior interview where they say as much would be an ideal source, but really anything works. 2603:8080:BB00:9DA:D421:99BD:CAC6:309B (talk) 06:48, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
- Coming in after seeing that this IP attempted to vandalize my user page. Michaelis's social media accounts dont appear to list their pronouns, but I've just looked at the most recent episode of Gastronauts that features Michaelis, where their pronouns are still listed as they/she. If this IP is truly Michaelis, which seems unlikely, they should stop editing this article due to their conflict of interest and provide a source on this talk page to their change to exclusively she/her.

- Just wound up on this page after reading about a few of the Dropout cast members. Vic's pronouns are they/she, according to the show they host. (I'm unable to post YouTube links apparently , check the 2:00 mark on the episode "An Interview with a Very Important Motivational Speaker available on Youtube)
- As that seems to be the most definitive source, rather than shows they've appeared on as a guest potentially getting it wrong, I'll go ahead & edit the page accordingly. 2600:1004:B1C3:B5C9:A465:B539:F7CB:8A3A (talk) 12:35, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
- Actually, just noticed both the correct pronouns are already covered on the page... my bad. Can't edit my previous reply, so just leaving this one as a clarifying note.

- Ah yeah, my response may have been unclear. I had been going off of their most recent appearance I could find that listed Michaelis's pronouns, which at the time was the most recent episode of Gastronauts. Nothing I've seen of Michaelis recently has listed anything other than they/she, whether it's guest appearances or their own work like Very Important People.
- Regardless, there's almost no chance that the IP claiming to be Vic was telling the truth, and the article should continue to default to they. Taffer😊 💬(they/she) 13:37, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
