Proposal: Use game terms instead of sport terms
editThis sport is a mind sport, which is defined in Wikipedia as a game of mental skill. Also, use of the term sport implies that Jackson only plays computer or video games that simulate the playing of traditional sports, which is not true. Use of the term sport is not appropriate for this article's topic. The title of the article should be changed to something like Ben Jackson (professional gamer) (gamer, since that is what he is and professional to provide a distinction between those paid to game and those non professional gamers who are not paid). Other references to sport in the article should be changed to game. This was brought up in the second AfD. Please post your thoughts and make a change if a consensus is reached. -- Jreferee 20:54, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
I really don't see this as being important enough for a wikipedia article, this person hasn't done anything significantly worthy of recognition. If this guy can put up his biography for being good at Halo, I'm going to put one up about me, because I can top that. 24.61.248.104 (talk) 15:15, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: moved. Jenks24 (talk) 13:34, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
Karma (gamer) → Karma (Halo player) – With current title redirecting to Karma (disambiguation)#People. Ambiguous with Karma (Call of Duty player). SSTflyer 10:45, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
- Support moving to (Halo player). If there is any primary topic here, it's the CoD player (based off view counts). Anarchyte (work | talk) 14:05, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
- Support per lack of primary topic and easy confusion. There's also an inherent problem here we'll need to deal with in the long term. No hard-core notable pro gamer is going to be notable for a single game indefinitely, because the games themselves come and go. The present naming system is probably OK, but a decade from now we're going to need something else, e.g. "Foo (MMORPG gamer)" by genre, or something. Cross that bridge when we come to it. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 20:32, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
