Suggested improvements

[edit]

At present the table in the article does not sort the dates correctly and produces some strange results. Also it might be helpful to use the {{sortname|}} template for the players.

After trial and error on List of England international footballers (alphabetical), the only format that sorts dates correctly is YYYY MM DD.

If you adopt my suggestion, the table would look like this.

Name Date of birth Caps Goals Date of first cap Opponent Date of last cap Opponent Other
Alex Bunbury 1967 05 18 64 16 1986 08 24  Singapore 1997 11 16  Costa Rica
Nick Dasovic 1968 12 05 63 2 1992 04 02  China 2004 01 18  Barbados
Lyndon Hooper 1966 05 30 66 3 1986 08 24  Singapore 1997 06 01  Costa Rica
Randy Samuel 1963 12 23 82 0 1983 12 11  Honduras 1997 11 16  Costa Rica Canada's most capped player
Mark Watson 1970 09 08 77 3 1991 06 28  Honduras 2004 10 13  Costa Rica

p.s. The article name should also be changed to List of Canada international soccer players to be consistent with all the other lists at Category:Lists of footballers by national team. Daemonic Kangaroo 16:13, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with both suggestions! I am not very good with formating, hence my simplistic tables, and I couldn't decide what to call the article as the national page title is different to the norm (include's "mens" and replaces "football" with "soccer") GiantSnowman 17:09, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

changing title to List of Canadian men's international soccer players

[edit]

Since this list is about the men's team, is there any opposition to re-naming it List of Canadian men's international soccer players? Hmlarson (talk) 00:13, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Or expand to include the women? Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:16, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
What's your preference? Hmlarson (talk) 00:38, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Move and create the other. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:44, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
There should be two lists, to match the articles on the men's/women's national teams. GiantSnowman 06:59, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
