Name[edit]

@MisterCake: @Cbl62: If we're using infobox college football player as opposed to infobox officeholder, aren't we implying that his football career is more notable than his AG career? In which case, should we rename to Edgar Allan Poe (American football), or change the infobox, or...? Lizard (talk) 04:40, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@MisterCake: Half a year later, I realize this ping didn't work, since I didn't sign my comment initially. Lizard (talk) 07:06, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Makes sense, though both are pretty notable. Had to be something to watch Poe and Ames. Cake (talk) 13:07, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Birthplace[edit]

The infobox says he was born in Boston, and the article says he was born in Baltimore. Must've been some feat to be born in two different cities at the same time… 157.131.244.194 (talk) 23:13, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
