Mid-range shawty

Mid-range shawty redirects here but isn't mentioned anywhere in the article. Generally redirects from nicknames are only useful if the nickname is well-known or significant enough to merit a mention in the article; can such a mention be added in this case or should the redirect go to WP:RFD? – Arms & Hearts (talk) 18:00, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Arms & Hearts: I dont see it at https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/s/smithjo03.html, which usually is pretty generous about putting obscure ones. RfD seems reasonable. —Bagumba (talk) 18:46, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Arms & Hearts: That said, there are sources on Google. All depends what one considers WP:FANCRUFT. It's not a common nickname of his.—Bagumba (talk) 18:51, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Bagumba. I'll give it a few more days and see if anyone else has any thoughts. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 19:02, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Belatedly RFD'd; see below. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 15:46, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
