Automatic Player Card Linking
The system now finds player names automatically. There are some gaps in data and some errors but we will refine this as we go. Please post any issues about functionality in this thread. Thanks.

Original post:
You might have seen this running person icon in the text editor bar:
What does it do?
Type in a player name, highlight it, and click that button.
e.g.
Cameron Rayner
Now when anyone mouses over that player name, a data card pops up for the player.
Mouse over the star rating to see the description.
* Not all players have all of their stats entered yet.
* Comparing to all players:
Top 10% - Elite
then above 66% is Campaigner
then above 33% is Average
then above 10% is Poor
then below 10% is Very poor
The method for calculating this will likely change as we get feedback.
* Player numbers are only showing the first digit - this will be fixed really soon.
* Right now you can disambiguate players with the same name with their birth date. This will be made more user friendly soon, and we will include nicknames etc. e.g.
Junior:
Gary Ablett
Senior:
Gary Ablett
* Player portraits we are working on.
* Later you will be able to click the player name to go to a full stats page.
* At some point you will get some options like whether to make it embedded or mouse-over.
