 Ive noticed that we have an issue with Jr's. It seems the Jr is being forgotten when entering cards on checklists alot of times. Almost all of John Mayberry Jr's cards for the last several years  were in John Mayberry (Sr)'s list. I started fixing those last night. Delino DeShields Jr is the same way. I havent checked others yet. 

 As a Jr myself, I can say that the whole world has an issue with Jr's, not just this database!!

Also listed in the Ken Williams cards is the card 1992 Conlon Collection TSN #490 is on a different player born in 1890. Thanks Jerry

I fixed several of these the other day in instances where I was sure who it was.  There were lots of missing images, and the two basketball players (John "Hot Rod" Williams and John "Hot Plate" Williams) had overlapping 10+ year NBA careers, so I wasn't always sure which one it was without an image to reference.  I think all the cards under Hot Rod Williams are actually Hot Rod, but I think there are a lot of cards of both Hot Rod and Hot Plate under plain John Williams.  Maybe it would simplify things if they were designated as John "Hot Rod" Williams and John "Hot Plate" Williams instead of Hot Rod Williams and John Williams??  Hot Rod played for Tulane, Cavs, and Suns, as has been noted, and Hot Plate played for LSU, Bullets, Clippers, and Pacers.  Both joined the league in 1986.

I just found confirmation on a figures site that the 1988 Starting Lineup was of Hot Rod, so I will move that one now.

Under the name Hot Rod Williams(Fleer 1990/91 card #37) are cards for John Williams of Tulane. Under the listing John Williams(1953 Bowman card #87) is 1st a football player that played for the Redskins in the 50's and then a basketball player (1987/88 Fleer card #122) from LSU that played for the Bullets. Most of the cards in this listing are for John Williams aka Hot Rod Williams (1991/92 Skybox card #55) of Tulane and Cleveland/Phoenix. Thanks Jerry

Billy Smith (http://www.tradingcarddb.com/Person.cfm/pid/5456/Billy-Smith) needs to be split into the following.

 PID = 28640 Edwin Encarnarcion and PID = 28672 Scot Eyre can be deleted. These are duplicate entries of players but with mispellings of their names. I moved the ones under the mispelled to the proper entries and these 2 PIDs are now empty.
