[edit] Greg Paulas?

Looks like a Duke fan made this article. Could somebody with better information edit this article please?

I made it, and I'm not a Duke fan.--Downwards 01:59, 24 May 2006 (UT

[edit] Article Rename Request

There is another Marcus Williams that plays basketball. To aviod confusion, I think the subtitle of this article should be changed.

How about we make it Marcus Darrell Williams? This guy's been on more than one team, and who knows how many teams he'll play for in the future.—Nat Krause(Talk!) 04:13, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
Few reasons it should be left as Marcus Williams (UConn)
  • It can't be Marcus Williams (basketball) or Marcus Williams (basketball player) as there is already another existing Marcus Williams b'ball player for the University of Arizona.
  • It can't be Marcus Williams (New Jersey Nets) because what if he gets released or traded?
  • It can't be Marcus Williams (NBA) because the other Marcus Williams may join the NBA
  • He is not not known by his full name "Marcus Darrell Williams", just Marcus Williams so it being the article's title is not preferable. Please cease moving this page. --Downwards 07:42, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
  • The first source for this article is for the Marcus Williams at Arizona, not the UConn Marcus Williams, and needs to be re-cited
It's true that he's not known as "Marcus Darrell Williams", but, then, he isn't known as "Marcus Williams (UConn)", either; he's just known as "Marcus Williams", which, unfortunately, is ambiguous. He doesn't even play for UConn anymore. I would prefer using his full name, which is the only relevant disambiguator which is unlikely to change during his career.—Nat Krause(Talk!·What have I done?) 18:42, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
