message: Someone needs to pull the trivia section out of the article and/or incorporate the sourced info into it.
Also, can anyone who's more familiar with formatting explain why the edit by User:96.227.36.145 nuked the bottom part (see also, refs, boxes) of the article? Thanks, dfg (talk) 17:30, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Canseco's name = Steroids (among other things.) That first paragraph has to be edited to mention that somehow.

replies: text: I was just coming to this talk page to say this. A one paragraph lead for this article is too short as it is, and the lead really needs to discuss steroids based on his prominent involvement in the issue. This needs to be done. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:07, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Must mention steroids in first/intro paragraph 

message: I'm confused about a couple entries in the current article.  First off, it says Jose left Cuba when he and Ozzie were infants.  However, I've heard that his family came to America in the 1970s.  Does this mean that they lived somewhere else from the mid-60s to the 1970s?  My second concern has a little editoralizing, so I apologize in advance.  In the categories section, it lists "People who attempted suicide" as one of the categories.  Is this true, or is this someone's sick idea of a joke?  There's nothing about that in the article.  I'd never heard of any suicide attempt by Jose, and it seems he can't spit on the sidewalk without everyone talking about it.  Also, I know that there are people who make up stories like that to get some kind of sick kick.  I'd need a relaible source before I'll believe it really happened.

message: This edit has brought up the following question from me:
Does he use the accent or not when spelling out his name?
I see on the CommonsCategory and the lead paragraph that the accent is visible as well as in the "Performance-enhancing drugs" section. I'm not sure if that should remain there or drop the accent entirely. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 11:21, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: If I'm reading MOS:DIACRITICS correctly, Wikipedia policy is to retain diacritics in proper names, "if used by the subject". Used or not, they should be consistent within the article. That being said, Canseco appears to spell his name without the acute accent, if you go by his Twitter page, his books, and most articles. I'm sure some editors feel strongly about it either way, and it probably hasn't come up because it would be hard to justify based on Canseco himself or secondary sources. I would suggest we leave it alone, since the article is pretty stable. But the article should use either "Jose" or "José" consistently, above all else. Matuko (talk) 18:37, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
