Testimonial

[edit]

Has Kezza had a testimonial year at all, he's been at Saints for 17 years now?

"World's Best"

[edit]

I removed this nickname from the article as it doesn't appear to be real. This article was cited as a source, but after a quick search no other news outlets seem to support this. I believe it may be a case of circular referencing, as an old version of this article included the nickname, only unsourced, and presumably the writer used Wikipedia to research his or her article without checking the facts. So in this case the citation should be disregarded. J Mo 101 (talk) 21:14, 18 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've seen it written down elsewhere, and heard it on BBC coverage. but it's entirely feasible to believe that the written form and BBC coverage were also using this as a source. Still a little dubious as it involves presumption of guilt on our side. He was highly regarded at the time, and may look into another source to satisfy things, as it feels both right and wrong in almost equal measures to remove this nickname.Fleets (talk) 08:29, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I take it that this addition would not offend?Fleets (talk) 09:29, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That seems to be acceptable, although I would perhaps cite this article rather than one of the tabloid papers. I'm not a huge fan of nickname fields in infoboxes as they're prone to vandalism, and there aren't nearly enough of us to keep watch on all rugby league articles, but as long as the nickname is notable and it's reliably sourced I have no problem with them. The previous one I felt was a bit dubious per my reasoning above. J Mo 101 (talk) 19:44, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
