There must be more than one Paul Roos. He cannot have been the first Springbok captain.

a) He'd be dead by now as he'd have to be about 130 years old. b) The article says he's an Aussie AFL player.GordyB 12:20, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Yes he is dead already and he was the first Springbok captain and his name was Paul Roos and Paul Roos Gymnasium in Stellenbosch was named after him. His nick name was "Oom Polla". Regards Gregorydavid 06:10, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. What is the meaning of "knowing how to Wiki"? I know of at least three persons with the name Paul Roos, one who isAustralian and has an existing Wiki article by that name, another Dr. Paul Roos who is 80 years old, Dutch and from Holland and then the famous Paul Roos who was the first Springbok captain who toured England in 1906.

How do I change the existing article into a disambiguation page or should I use disambiguation links to do justice to the other famous Roos personalities..?

See similar issue for Thibault please.. Regards Greg Gregorydavid 09:37, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
