Open Questions / Issues for Trevor
- TKO Premier SC and Kingdom SC filed under wrong region/state subdirectory: TKO is at
clubs/great-lakes/ohio/but is a Michigan club (Wayland MI); Kingdom is atclubs/great-lakes/wisconsin/but is a Michigan club (Wayland MI / Kingdom Sports complex). Background task chip generated togit mvand update wikilinks. - Eden Prairie Soccer Club was filed at
clubs/great-lakes/wisconsin/but is a Minnesota club. Already moved during expansion toclubs/midwest/minnesota/eden-prairie-soccer-club.md. - Tax-status auto-classification flagged 3 false positives (dearborn-stars-sc, kingdom-sc, vermont-united-soccer-academy) where lint matched on “ProPublica” / “nonprofit” keywords used in negative context (e.g., “no ProPublica record found”). Reverted to
unknown. Worth tightening lint heuristics to require positive EIN-format match before promoting. - KC Select rebrand: club is now Union KC (rebranded May 2024). Article filename and slug should be updated wiki-wide on next pass — currently shows
kc-selecteverywhere with redirect prose. - Salvo SC ED vacancy: Executive Director role was open as of late 2025; club entered 2025-26 season without confirmed permanent executive leadership. Worth tracking.
