Wikipedia is hardly a reliable source for grammar expertise. Don't make me
send Grammar Girl after you.

"Their" is grammatically incorrect when used to refer to a single person.
Consider rewriting the sentence all together.

In my books, I consistently interchanged "he" and "she" to encourage the
reader to visualize an actual person without giving favor to either gender.
