Template talk:Infobox table tennis player

Native name
This info box needs extra fields for "native_name" and and "native_name_lang", similar to those on Template:Infobox person. This would allow the addition of the players name in their own language. This is particularly important for this info box because many of the people described are not English: e.g. Chinese players, and there is nowhere to list the name within the infox box causing many editors to shoehorn the Chinese text in the "name" field which then breaks the semantic hCard microformat that lies underneath the infobox.
