• Support Although technically only 83.33% of the sources specify Sid (his Birth details at freebmd.org.uk" specifies Sidney) ‹(•¿•)› Merry Xmas Jeff. DynamoDegsy (talk) 10:32, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

• Oppose "Sid Little" currently redirects to Syd Little, a very well known comedian, this is a likely misspelling of his name, the rugby player seems rather obscure by comparison. We might consider moving him to "Sid Little (rugby)". PatGallacher (talk) 15:59, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

But Sid Little is not a misspelling for the subject of this article. A hat-note can go on top of this one with a link to the comedian for people who get it wrong.--Gibson Flying V (talk) 22:29, 20 December 2013 (UTC)
