Intro sentence - include "Known as" or no?
editWith a special callout to @Strugglehouse (and a host of IP users), can we establish consensus for whether to include "also known as Ricky Montgomery" (or forms of)?
Having read WP:HYPOCORISM, I'm on the side it shouldn't be included - stealing the example of Bill Gates, the nickname stands for Richard. Couruu (talk) 15:51, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
- Definitely should not be included. Ricky is a common hypocorism of Richard, so shouldn't be included. See WP:HYPOCORISM and the examples used there. Strugglehouse (talk) 16:05, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
