[edit] Name

Are we going to change his name because one newspaper writes his name that way? What about all the others that always have used and still use N'Kufo? Knurftendans 09:57, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Are you able to understand German? It is not just an article, but an interview with Blaise Nkufo. He says there: "Mein Name zum Beispiel wird seit Jahren falsch geschrieben, obwohl ich immer sage, Nkufo schreibe sich ohne Apostroph. Trotzdem wird er mit Apostroph geschrieben.". I think that is a clear reason for changing the name. You might also change the name in the Dutch version, as you are apparently Dutch. --Leyo 10:32, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't read the whole article. Seems like you are right to change his name in this case. I will change it for the Dutch version as well. Knurftendans 13:10, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Here is an example that newspapers can write a name wrongly. However, to change this to the correct form we need, for instance, the player himself to say how to write it. We'll keep seeing thousands of names misspelled in Wikipedia because of this fact. Escorpión Canalla 22:56, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
