	By the end of the book, Trev's the most famous foot-the-ball player in Ankh-Morpork. Sure, he needed to use a tin can because he wasn’t used to an actual football, but the ball is the ball, as they say. I suppose the real actual relevant question is: what’s “now” for our articles? Most seem to be from the perspective of the contemporary Discworld, i.e. how things were left as of the end of {{TSC}}. For example, Sam Vimes is Commander of the Watch, not its Captain; that’s in the past, and part of his backstory. Should the same not be true of Trev? -- [[User:Guybrush\|Guybrush]] ([[User talk:Guybrush\|talk]]) 06:24, 4 February 2025 (UTC)		By the end of the book, Trev's the most famous foot-the-ball player in Ankh-Morpork.

			:Is there any suggestion that he ever has played, or will, an actual game? (He promised his old mum he wouldn't play foot-the-ball). I'd say he was more famous as a HAB (husbands and boyfriends) of a famous fashion model. I guess it's debatable; revert if you like. --[[User:Old Dickens\|Old Dickens]] ([[User talk:Old Dickens\|talk]]) 17:11, 4 February 2025 (UTC)

	No leads either. Damn. The original prompt was a passing remark in a copy of the ''Fortean Times'' about the practice of exorcism... but no reference on the net to the Rev.
