Talk:List of sportspeople with nicknames

message: Three questions:  First, in each entry on the list is a country.  Does this represent the country the player played in or the country of birth?  Second, how exhaustive of a list is this?  There are tens and tens of Chicks, Reds, Rubes and Docs.  Should all of them be compiled regardless of how long they played or how significant their career was?  I would vote yes.  Third, should players' names who don't have a page on Wikipedia such as Bing Miller be formatted as a link to a non existant page or just be plain text?  Chitownfcko 14:20, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: List of sportspeople by nickname →  – First of all, the current title falsely implies that all sports people have nicknames. Second of all, this list is not sorted by nickname, so it does not make sense to say "by nickname". Blubabluba9990 (talk) (contribs) 23:53, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
