BR Bullpen talk:Manual of Style (Japan-related articles)
In terms of registered names, what about players who register as a nickname? Ex. Randy Ready as Spike? Shouldn't we continue to list him as Ready for the sake of consistency even if his uniform didn't identify him as such? - --Mischa 09:43, 12 February 2007 (EST)
- The guideline was meant more for Japanese players changing their name Kanji for luck, not for foreign players. So Ready would style be refered to as Ready - although a note that his reg name was Spike wouldn't hurt. --MichaelEng (talk) 01:06, 13 February 2007 (EST)
