Hey there just a few questions that I could use some help on, this set is all in and looks fairly well done but just a few things I wonder on. First #181 the person put team name as NHL All-Stars and its not an All-Star Card, its a HHOF card for the induction ceremony. Upper Deck lists an NHL team for each player, what would be the proper protocol here? Secondly is the Glossay terms, A) are they needed? AM for the Authentic Moments and TC for Team Canada Moments and B) If yes they should be there then should I change TC to TCM? Finally, the Future Watch cards at the very end, they are AU, RC, SN999 which is correct but should there be a FW as well? Just curious before I do too much of anything.

Card #181, HHOF induction. A player is usually inducted into the HOF as a member of a specific team. I assumed Upper Deck used that team. Sakic, Colorado; Sundin, Toronto; Oates, Boston; and Bure, Vancouver. But Upper Deck has Oates listed as St. Louis Blues and the HHOF has him inducted as a Boston Bruin. You can always select "No Team" on the card.
Yes to the glossary terms. I'd change TC to TCM because TC is used for Team Card. FW probably should be added since they are subset cards.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

We still really need to clean up the glossary. Lots of terms with multiple abbreviations and lots of abbreviations associated with multiple terms.

Turning off trading because my collection is in complete disarray after moving and I don't know when I can get it organized.

Each abbreviation can mean something different for each set it is used on. The glossary for that set will only show what it means for that set. Yes, the main glossary can show many meanings for the same abbreviation.

I'm working on that for baseball. I've cleaned up some stuff, but there is SOOOOO much out there - and so much of it is inconsistent. I've also been working on cleaning up the list of sets with glossary entries without definitions. That's been quite the tall task.

What I have noticed, however, is multiple abbreviations being used for the same meaning - AGM, ASSTGM, A GM, AG, were all being used (or something like that) for Assistant General Manager (usually seen in MiLB sets). I think that is what was being mentioned about "cleaning it up". (I know that's what I'd like to see happen.)

OK so now I am updating things that we discussed above and I have another goofy(ish) question. On the base set is there a way to update multiple notes at one time like the inserts or are we forced to do it one by one? Or just send a note to Admin?!

With base sets, it's still a note to Admin via the report inaccuracies link.
