Date Of Birth edit
Article says 1980, but the side bar says 1981. Which is it? I'd correct if I knew the correct date. -134.71.184.66 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 04:15, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
- It would appear from Soccerbase that 1980 would be the year of birth. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 19:34, 27 June 2023 (UTC)

Matthew Gill → Matt Gill – Having a look at the sources, almost the whole group says he is known as Matt Gill, including the most recent added source. The page creator has not been active since 2006 so assumed he was known by the full version before all the sources were even added and clearly points the article title is not WP:COMMONNAME. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 19:34, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- Support per nom and WP:COMMONNAME. The sources indicate that he is more commonly known as Matt instead of Matthew. Fats40boy11 (talk) 09:48, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
