Not sure why i am getting down voted. If the lights aren't wired parallel, the lights after the first one won't get the required voltage to operate optimally.

The split will probably be closer to the lights which would make re-doing the wiring difficult since your would need to run wires to the split for the switch.

I would like an explanation why someone would think this information is wrong?

Should still be since lights are also wired parallel.

You would need to know how they are wired, most likely someone goofed the wiring. You will have to follow the wires and see where they split since they should be wired parallel.

The switches are most likely located before the split, removing the switches and putting them on the seperate splits should allow you to turn the ceiling fan and light fixture on and off individually.

We humans are so weird. Wonder what the annoying person was expecting to happen.

Most humans are dead, the world is overrun with demons, large parts of the planet has been nuked, large pockets of sentient AI remain that have built bodies for themselves out of whatever tech they could find.

You are an AI that was infected with a computer virus that recently became sentient, you find yourself in a very human like body in a factory producing exact replicas of your body.

Nah, that's just Steve from accounting. He has a medical condition.
