Agreed - they should say in the Name field what is on the card. If there are multuiple of "Checklist 2 of 10", then Note2 should be used to differentiate them. Just lilke any other set.

And that's great that you only collect Frank Robinson. I don't collect foorball, soccer, gaming, or tennis, but that doesn't stop me from helping out with checklists, linking issues, etc. in those sets. This is a crowd-sourced site (it says it on the home page when you're not logged in, so you saw it at some point), and it requires all of us to work together to help each other out. If we come across a checklist that is missing the serial numbers, we don't update just the player we collect, or just cards we own. We update the entire set to help out everyone. Please be mindful.

Roger. I'll start getting some of it done. Also noticed that many cards don't have player/team links so I can add those as I go alone. Anyone else wanna join the fun?

As an aside, if people were actually using their checklists as checklists, this would be a truly ridiculous set. Can you imagine trying to collect 110 cards so you could see what’s missing from your 732-card set??
And now we have a checklist of the checklists on TCDb.

Huh? I only collect Frank Robinson. I only use the database for that specific reason. "Please be mindful" of what exactly? For collecting only one player?

Please be mindful of the other thousands of users that use the Database. You only collect Frank Robinson and that's fine, but what about the Ron Gardenhire or Boston Red Sox collector that would also be interested in this card?
Part of what makes this site so great is this community and the wilingness to help and be considerate to other members. Just look at the Pay It Forward forum thread that has over 3400 replies of members thanking others for sending them cards completely unprompted.
With a card like this, where there are multiple players and teams, we don't just add one player or team link. We add everyone, and the rest of the set too. That way, we can help our collection, and also help others. You did the right thing by calling to attention the fact that these were not listed properly, and you can see where other members are wiling to jump right in to correctly fix things up, so even if you don't know how to fix it, there are others who do - and will.
All Dan wanted to remind you of was that there are other users of the Database, and we all have our own purposes for it. But being considerate of the purposes of other users helps keep this the greatest website on the internet.
-------------------------------
I'll never quit collecting entirely, but I am downsizing. Check out my COMC store and help me thin out what I don't want so I can buy cards that I do want. See something you like? Send me a message on here, and we can knock the price down quite a bit. I'll even take a bit of a loss if it means getting you a card you really want.

The first 10 are all set. So it's just a matter of cutting and pasting the Name and Note2 fields.
-------------------------------
Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

Is there a tool to overwrite the Red Backs parallel checklist?

There isn't a tool for that, but once the one is complete, I have a method for getting it copied over. Just let me know.
