We have (Australian footballer) tacked on the end of this person's name to presumably differentiate him from some other Paul Reid, and to show that he plays Australian football. Right? No! He is, in fact, in Australian terms, a soccer player. Or in Wikipedia terms, an Association footballer. To call him an Australian footballer is just plain silly.

The result of the move request was: Moved to Paul Reid (soccer, born 1979) – consensus to move, but no consensus on the new title. The requested move has been relisted three times and discussion has died down, both here and at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (sportspeople)#"Soccer" disambiguators. The result is a clear consensus against the existing title and its use of "footballer". There is no consensus on whether the new title should use the birth year or the nationality as a disambiguator. Recognisability was an argument in favour of Paul Reid (Australian soccer player), while consistency with other titles was an argument against. Paul Reid (Australian soccer) was suggested as being more consistent, but was not the preferred option of any participant. Because there is a consensus to move, I am moving the article, picking the option which retains the existing style choice of using of the birth year. Following WP:NOGOODOPTIONS, a new move request to a nationality-based title is permitted at any time. An RFC is of course also possible.
