He's AMERICAN[edit]

If we're gonna label by ethnicity, then redo all caucasians and label them as such. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:3140:3900:81C1:2F0C:9101:AA35 (talk) 08:20, 9 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Reversion[edit]

Hi, just inquiring about the reversion of my recent edit. Sánchez was born in California and lived virtually his whole life in the US - why the change? Chubbles (talk) 12:01, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Richard Sánchez → Richard Sánchez (Mexican footballer) – no clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC Joeykai (talk) 03:39, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Move to Richard Sánchez (American footballer), as he is American by nationality. Chubbles (talk) 05:39, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support move ~~to Richard Sánchez (American footballer)~~, per above. (Or, actually, move to Richard Sánchez (footballer, born 1994), to avoid confusion.) Paintspot Infez (talk) 05:53, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose as nominated, given nationality is ambiguous (born and raised in USA, but elected to represent Mexico at youth international level). The alternative proposed by @Chubbles: an supported by @Paintspot: is even more flawed, as it not only has ambiguity with nationality but also sport (confusion with American football). Instead I suggest a move to Richard Sánchez (footballer, born 1994), given YOB is cleaner and more widely used to disambiguate players. GiantSnowman 12:40, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Support proposal by GiantSnowman I think "American footballer" is particularly inappropriate since Americans don't use the term "footballer", instead using "soccer player". Agree that year of birth is a better disambiguator. Jay eyem (talk) 14:54, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Support proposal by GiantSnowman. Actually, yep, it should definitely be moved to Richard Sánchez (footballer, born 1994), per above. Paintspot Infez (talk) 15:33, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I do not oppose the proposal to move to (footballer, born 1994). Chubbles (talk) 16:32, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Richard Sánchez → Richard Sánchez (Mexican footballer) per GiantSnowman, but would support either Richard Sánchez (footballer, born 1994) or, if consensus skews towards the unaccented form, would also support Richard Sanchez (footballer, born 1994). —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 07:57, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support a move somewhere and add a see also to Rick Sanchez. The Paraguayan footballer has more (889) views than this one (513)[[1]]. Crouch, Swale (talk) 09:58, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
