Billy, I had never noticed that section before. Thanks for pointing it out.

That's cool. I just checked 3 of my PC and none had the Wikipedia link. 10 seconds later they now do. Thanks, Billy.

So it looks like you don't get a point for adding name links to cards with multiple players on it but you do for adding a Wikipedia link to a player page? Wonder why is that? I just did 3 of each to test and I got 3 points for the external links but nothing for the name tags??

Fixing PIDs and TIDs does not get immediate points. Admin awards those points on a monthly basis.
Keep up the good work.

Could these external links be used to identify "unlisted" cards? Therefore all members would at least have a reference. Right?

Bob, they could...but that's a tricky situation. They would need to be posted someplace that is not going to disappear and become a dead link. IE, no ebay links.
if you were to put them on a website and then link to them, that would be ideal. I would not put a whole lot of different ones on the linked page, though, as the link is supposed to be about a specific person. A blog post about a specific unknown/unlistable card would be absolutely perfect for this, and I have to be honest...I'm thinking about stealing the idea.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

Thanks C2C and Billy! I learn something new here all the time and had never scrolled down that far.

Bob, using the external links on a players page for something like that would likely be removed by Admin once spotted and known.
