Add https://pronoun.is/ey/em/eir/eirs/eirself to pronouns.tab:

Why these pronouns are relevant:

  1. I want to be able to link to them without writing the full unwieldy URL out, just like I can with they/.../themself.
  2. Elverson (1975) pronouns: ey/em/eir/eirs/emself are a used by people. Note that words "ey" and "emself" are found in every one of the external links below (that combination is missing from the database, which has entries only for combinations e/.../emself and ey/.../eirself): a. http://tib.cjcs.com/genderless-pronouns-ey-em-and-eir-2/ b. https://en.pronouns.page/ey c. http://www.riotnrrdcomics.com/characters/

Should this pronoun set be included according to the Philosophy on pronoun inclusion? Yes.

I understand ey/.../emself is similar to ey/.../eirself but emself is actually more popular (Google Ngram Viewer, Google Trends) so if ey/.../eirself is included, so should ey/.../emself be.
