Phase 1 integrity changes

  • 7 wikilink fixes (mostly mn-thunder-academy → minnesota-thunder-academy and dc-united → dc-united-academy)
  • 25 EIN body-visibility quick-facts blockquotes inserted under H1 (Quartz renders body, not frontmatter)
  • 3 tax_status fields auto-backfilled to nonprofit (dearborn-stars-sc, kingdom-sc, vermont-united-soccer-academy)

Voice cleanup batch (10 — all already clean from prior nights, AGENDA strikethroughs caught up)

u90c-sports, elite-tournaments, ramiz-sabljic, slsg, united-futbol-academy, lou-fusz-athletic, missouri, las-vegas, charlotte-independence-sc, san-diego-surf — all confirmed at 0 voice violations; AGENDA marked DONE.

Note: Use [[wikilink]] format (not raw paths) so the Quartz site renders them as clickable links. For files in subdirectories, Obsidian basename resolution handles the path automatically — [[manhattan-sc]] works regardless of clubs/tri-state/new-york/ location.

Integrity Pass

  • Link fixes: 7
  • Cross-links added: (handled inline during stub expansion — clubs cross-linked to neighboring market articles, leagues, facilities)
  • Stubs created from entity extraction: 9 (3 clubs, 3 people, 3 leagues)
  • EIN body-visibility lines inserted: 25
  • Tax-status auto-backfills: 3 (nonprofit)
  • Thin articles flagged: 0 (Phase 1F clean — all 344 draft articles ≥200 words, no complete/stale articles)
  • Aged stubs queued: 255 total (top 30 selected for AGENDA, 28 worked in this run)

Research Progress

Topics completed:

  • Phase 1G aged-stub queue: 28 of top 30 worked (17 EIN-bearing OH/VA/MD/PA/CT + 6 NY/NJ + 5 Michigan)
  • 6 new EINs newly resolved via ProPublica searches (Manhattan SC, NYSC, NJ Stallions, Michigan Hawks, Eden Prairie SA via stub creation, FC Michigan via expansion, Canton Soccer Club via Detroit City FC West expansion)
  • Phase 1A broken-wikilink discovery → 9 entity stubs

Topics partially completed:

  • Aged-stub queue still has ~225 items (Vardar SC, Lakeshore FC, Plymouth Reign, Michigan Burn, Michigan Wolves, Rapids FC, Waza FC, PASS FC, Legends FC Michigan, Liverpool FC IA-MI, NJ Stallions handled, NV Villarreal LV Academy, plus 2026-05-09 batch with EIN-bearing CT/MD/Florida ones already done)

Next up:

  • Continue draining aged-stub queue (Michigan remainder + Vardar SC + tri-state remainder)
  • Specialized Topics #44 (MLS Next/ECNL evolution recent changes), #46 (Software landscape — SportsEngine/TeamSnap/Stack/PlayMetrics market share), #50 (Facility inventory by market)
  • Editorial-voice cleanup queue still has ~30+ articles flagged (the 2026-05-06 list)

Open Questions / Issues for Trevor

  1. Slack notification failed — mcp__slack__slack_post_message returned invalid_auth for both start and end messages. Slack token may need refresh. Run-log link: updates/2026-05-09.md.
  2. Ohio Elite operating-entity puzzle — 990 reports only $37.8K passive income, but the active ECNL operations almost certainly run through a separate undisclosed entity. Highest-leverage open question.
  3. Ohio Premier — 2 consecutive years of operating losses (-$257K FY2024, -$275K FY2023) plus 20-year unfulfilled facility ambition; HQ has shifted to Plain City.
  4. Club Ohio title conflict — 990 lists Steve Dawson as DOC ($76.9K), website lists Evan Fuhs as Club DOC. Recent transition or formal/operational title split.
  5. Virginia Rush is 501(c)(4), not 501(c)(3) — anomalous in VA dataset (donations not tax-deductible). Verify implication for member-vs-public-benefit positioning.
  6. FC Richmond legal entity = Greenfield Dragons Athletic Association (1982 c-3) — DBA confusion worth flagging in any cross-reference work.
  7. Great Falls Reston completed a 2024 merger with DMV FC — explains FY2024 operating loss.
  8. Alexandria SA has tripled revenue since 2015 ($1.88M → $6.69M) — striking growth trajectory worth investigating cause.
  9. NJSA 04 location was wrong in old stub (Wayne → Aberdeen NJ); also clarified its lineage as predecessor of Cedar Stars Monmouth.
  10. FC Westchester is for-profit, not nonprofit — old stub had tax_status: nonprofit (corrected).
  11. The Football Academy NJ is for-profit, owner Mark Cassidy — old stub had tax_status: nonprofit (corrected).
  12. NYSC 990 has conflict-of-interest disclosures — worth a future targeted look.
  13. FC Michigan files 990-N (sub-$50K) while operating 32 teams U8-U19 — material discrepancy worth pursuing (likely separate operating entity).
  14. Voice cleanup queue is stale — 2026-05-06 AGENDA list claimed 10 articles had violations; lint shows 0 on all 10. Re-run lint before queueing future batches.
