WDD parsing improvements #287

Open UEWBot opened 5 months ago

UEWBot commented 5 months ago

The player pages on the WDD don't separate first and last names, and they only include nationality and not location. The player index page, on the other hand, does separate first and last names, and displays both nationality and location.

Ideally, then, we'd find a way to get that information from that page. The difficulty being that it's paginated, with currently 25 players/page over 552 pages, so actually getting the page with the player of interest is tricky (particularly if we're doing so to confirm the first & last names).

WDD has a “find player” search - can we use that?
