Proposal
editCan we add a nickname section to the infobox? I think if politicians and other figures have nicknames in their infoboxes (e.g Scomo) then so should soccer players (e.g CR7). Schestos (talk) 12:26, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- No, this is a silly idea. Footballer nicknames are trivial and fan-led. GiantSnowman 14:41, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

- Not always, some are used by players. Schestos (talk) 22:38, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

Proposal: Could we consider adding a "Nationality" section to the infobox? I believe this has become increasingly relevant, especially with the growing number of dual nationals and players eligible to represent multiple countries. Such information is now essential, as it accompanies players in every aspect of their careers—from international call-ups to transfer negotiations and even public discussions.

- @Lunar Spectrum96:
Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit template-protected}}template. I don't see any recent discussion at WT:FOOTY about this. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 16:15, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
