The contentious topics procedure applies to this page. This page is related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, which has been designated as a contentious topic.

Editors who repeatedly or seriously fail to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process may be blocked or restricted by an administrator. Editors are advised to familiarise themselves with the contentious topics procedures before editing this page.

This article should adhere to the gender identity guideline because it contains material about one or more non-binary people. Precedence should be given to self-designation as reported in the most up-to-date reliable sources, anywhere in article space, even when it doesn't match what's most common in reliable sources. Any person whose gender might be questioned should be referred to by the pronouns, possessive adjectives, and gendered nouns (for example "man/woman", "waiter/waitress", "chairman/chairwoman") that reflect that person's latest expressed gender self-identification. Many, but not all, non-binary people go by singular they pronouns, which are acceptable for use in articles. This applies in references to any phase of that person's life, unless the subject has indicated a preference otherwise. Former, pre-transition names may only be included if the person was notable while using the name; outside of the main biographical article, such names should only appear once, in a footnote or parentheses.

If material violating this guideline is repeatedly inserted, or if there are other related issues, please report the issue to the LGBT WikiProject, or, in the case of living people, to the BLP noticeboard.

This page is not a forum for general discussion about Demi Lovato. Any such comments may be removed or refactored. Please limit discussion to improvement of this article. You may wish to ask factual questions about Demi Lovato at the Reference desk.

Demi Lovato has been listed as one of the Media and drama good articles under the good article criteria. If you can improve it further, please do so. If it no longer meets these criteria, you can reassess it.

Genre

Please, since edition is closed to prevent vandalism, Demi’s genre should be updated. Her last album is rock and there are many reliable sources. For example

https://www.billboard.com/lists/demi-lovato-holy-fvck-tracks-ranked/

Also, most of the professional reviews agree on the album being rock, with some pop punk songs and metal, hard rock and goth influences. Maybe the best option is: Early and contemporary: rock, pop punk, pop rock. And the rest: R&B, Pop… Hadriensaori (talk) 17:18, 22 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Also, in Don’t forget page I added a source classifying the album as Rock. Hadriensaori (talk) 17:19, 22 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Most of her albums are described as rock-influenced records. Unless she (and not her discography) is described as a rock singer, the classification is incorrect. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 01:48, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Change Demi Lovato's pronouns to they/them from she/her. EMiLy Sau (talk) 05:01, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: According to the discussion above, Lovato seems to accept either they or she. Lovato most recently noted that she had re-adopted she/her pronouns in a recent interview, so the article currently uses those for consistency. If Lovato's preference has changed, please open a new discussion topic and provide a source.
