Per WP:MOS, it is appropriate to bold "Willie Russo", whic was an alias, but not "Willie Potatoes", which was just a nickname. It was not a name that he was known by, except to close friends/colleagues.
The "the" in "the Outfit" should only be capitalized when it's at the beginning of a sentence. "The Outfit" wasn't a registered trademark or anything like that.
Acronyms, like "aka", are to be spelled out on first use -- see WP:MOS -- because not everyone will know what it means. Many Wikipedia readers are not Americans, and many are reading in their second or third language, so let's make things easier for them. Ground Zero | t22:21, 20 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
