The cards are actually titled "Boyhood Photos of the Stars". How does one come up with KP for an acronym?

Beckett's has KP (Kid Photo) on their checklist for the 1972 Topps.  BP (Boyhood Photo) seems more common sense to me.  

A lot of what we have here is legacy "stuff" from Beckett. Thankfully, we are our own entity, and we can break away from those things that do not make sense.

Hear! Hear!  WE ARE...TCDB!!

Well,at least that explains where that came from.  Never did like Becketts; now even less for their increased stupidity.

I second this statement, I have always wondered WHY we had to follow something just because its been around for so long, just means it has been wrong for SO LONG!!! TCDB forever!!

so would GP be used for ladies, such as tennis players?

What do people think about having aliases displayed on a player's profile page?

Here is why I think it would be useful:

I went to add a name for Cack Henley and there was a similar name of Clarence Henley.  I went to the page for Clarence and didn't see any mention of Cack as a name.  Only after a Google search did I realize that Cack and Clarence were the same person.  I added Cack as an alias but this will only really help if any new check lists are added. 

If Cack Henley is still on an existing check list and someone goes to add that name, if they double check the Clarence Henry page they won't see any mention of Cack unless they click the "edit info" button.  They could also do a search like I did but if someone already did the research this could save the other person time and prevent duplication of names.

I've come across a problem with # Validation. The secondary field box doesn't always show up. Some card numbers I can't move the "a", "b", "c", etc. Nor can I add an "a", "b", "c", etc in cases where I need to.

On those particular cards, what is in the Note2 field? Admin has stated that very specific things must be there to trigger the activation of the extra field.
