This has been a bone of contention for a while now. So far I've seen "Akker", "Acka", "Akka", "Arka", and "aka". I think we should have a poll to set this is stone.
As 'Aka's' book spells it as 'Aka", I vote "aka". ~=~Scalene~=~
No poll required - if Aka spells it "Aka" on the cover of his book then that's definitive.-- The Brain of Morbius 11:25, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
"Akermanis may retire from AFL, after a recent email controversy where Akermanis attacked coach Leigh Matthews. Akermanis, being one of the most disliked players in the AFL, has had a season shrouded in controversy and many AFL supporters won't be disappointed if he did decide to hang up the boots."
If this doesn't breach WP:NPOV, I don't know what would. I'm removing this bias-filled paragraph. Feel free to re-add it if you can provide concrete proof Akermanis is so reviled. QazPlm 12:21, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
By what definition? He's from Mildura, which is in Victoria. Unless, of course, the definition is where one has spent the majority of one's life. Peter1968 14:36, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
Should he be categorised under "Croatian Australians"?
His biological father is a Denis Dezdjek, Dezdjek being a Croatian name. Misb 15:05, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
Akermanis is a Latvian name aswell. So Latvian Australian?

...A headline writer did. A careful read of the article shows this. Acker would not have written the headline. That's not how newspapers work. This must be fixed somehow. HiLo48 ( talk) 08:43, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
Curious as to the rationale for removing the reference to the egg-throwing incident, as it is mentioned in the linked article for that section (in the third paragraph of the story). There was a factual error - it was his house, not his person, that was egged, but surely that should have been corrected rather than removed outright? I've reinstated that section, slightly rewritten for greater accuracy. Lokicarbis ( talk) 23:47, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
