Not sure what people mean by linking across multiple places ............. can someone share a link, seeing is better than interpeting for me.

2017 Topps Buybacks were inserted in multiple products. You can see the same insert set linked from 2017 Topps, 2017 Topps Update, and 2017 Topps Allen & Ginter.
Actually looks like this insert set from 2017 Topps Heritage should be split by color and included in those sets linked to 2017 Topps / Upddate / A&G.

So, are we in agreement that we're going to lump the whole set together in the following manner:
Pinnacle - Epix Game Emerald
Pinnacle - Epix Game Orange
Pinnacle - Epix Game Purple
Pinnacle - Epix Moment Emerald
Pinnacle - Epix Moment Orange
Pinnacle - Epix Moment Purple
Pinnacle - Epix Play Emerald
Pinnacle - Epix Play Orange
Pinnacle - Epix Play Purple
Pinnacle - Epix Season Emerald
Pinnacle - Epix Season Orange
Pinnacle - Epix Season Purple
The sets will be created under the Pinnacle set.
Each checklist will have the complete run of cards listed.
The sets will be listed in each product they were inserted in, and these other products will link to these sets made in the Pinnacle product.
As a means of identifying which cards came from which product, that information will go into Note2 in the format of:
"Card inserted into packs of [product]"
Is there anything else we need to do with these cards?
After all this is done, jimetal7212, then you can go through and submit an IR for each card that has the incorrect scans (and hopefully, we'll be able to move them to the right spot instead of removing them completely).
Thanks everyone for your input. I really appreciate it!

OK, just wanted to keep everyone informed of what is going on with the Baseball Epix sets.
I have added all the notes needed to the "base" sets - these are the 12 sets that are listed under Pinnacle for the regular Epix sets and the 3 sets listed under Pinnacle Plus for the "All-Star" set. The 12 sets will eventually be linked to Score and Zenith, while the 3 in Pinnacle Plus will also be linked to the Score Rookie/Traded set.
I personally e-mailed anyone who had Epix cards listed in sets that are slated to be removed (because they were incomplete mis-listings). I only e-mailed those who had cards listed as "Collection" or "For Sale/Trade" (because they actually have these cards and should be given the chance to catalog them in the correct location). For those who have cards from the sets to be removed in your want lists - good news, it was probably a duplicate listing for you as the actual copy was already listed in 12 of the other 15 sets*.
The duplicate/incomplete sets should be deleted soon. It all depends on when Admin has time to do it as I don't have that access. Hopefully, it will be sometime this week. I also have a message into Admin as to how to handle the adding of the special links from Zenith and Score to the Pinnacle inserts, so we do it in the most efficient manner possible
jimetal7212 - Only look in the "Pinnacle" and "Pinnacle Plus" Epix sets to see if any images are incorrect now. I think I handled any of the images from the sets to be deleted that needed to move. But if you want to check them over, it would be a good idea.
Thanks everyone. Now, to move on to the ones over in hockey....
* - Due to Pinnacle going out of business before releasing the last product that had Epix cards, each of the 12 "Pinnacle" sets only contain 18 of the 24 cards scheduled for the set. That means that the 24 players only have 9 different cards instead of the 12 different they were supposed to have.

And just like that, I heard back from Admin, and we did it all wrong.
He wants to see the checklists in each product, with only 6 cards (12 for the All-Star Epix), and notes indicating where the others can be found. I have done some write-ups and submitted them in the Trivia section. We'll see if that is sufficient.
I have added the 6-card sets to Score & Zenith (all 12 of each). I now await instruction on how best to get the images and collection info out of the Pinnacle set and into the other 2, then get those 12 cards deleted from each of the 12 sets in Pinnacle. The sets that were not correct and are slated for deletion remain "bad" and will still be deleted. That didn't change.
Admin stated that "If the same exact cards were inserted into multiple products, or buybacks inserted across multiple products, then this is where cross-linking can be used." And that "the rule of thumb is that if it is known exactly which cards were inserted into which products, then every effort should be made to list the cards under the set they were inserted into. We wouldn’t want to give collectors the false impression that they can buy certain products and get cards that are only available in other products." I completely understand that point.
Thanks everyone with your patience while this set transitions into the segmented sets that it is.

Anything in the "Pinnacle" or "Pinncle Plus" sets that actually were from the other sets - I am requesting Admin to move the images and collection info to the appropriate card. So, if you have one of the cards that actually was pulled from Score packs, that info will be copied over from the Pinnacle set, and then the entry in the Pinnacle set will be deleted. (At least, that's what I'm requesting of Admin.) As long as you don't have any info in the sets that are slated for complete deleion (these are the Epix sets without color or type listed in the set name - if the set is named something like Epix Play Orange, it's staying, if it's just "Epix", that's going to be deleted). I sent e-mails to anyone who would be impacted by the deletions. There shouldn't be any other impact.

Should have warned me I needed a Ph.D. in Epixology to read this thread.
