What's the policy when a card has the wrong player on it? Should the card be linked to the player pictured, or for the player the card is about?

Should this change in the case of a Correction versus an Uncorrected Error?

I ask because I have this minor league card of Sam August, where Jeff Juden is pictured. The error wasn't ever corrected.

But I also have both of these 1990 Donruss John Smoltz Bonus MVP's - where Tom Glavine was originally placed on the card, but the company went back and fixed it.

Currently, that error counts as a Tom Glavine card in the DB. It seems a little weird not to link it to Smoltz though, since the card is about him.

Maybe wrong-picture cards should be tied to both players? 

I think the error cards should be listed under the person the card was about. Like the Smoltz errors should be listed under Smoltz not Glavine.
