guideline for matching wih multiple speakers

stephbuon commented 2 years ago

Names with initials are not included in the fuzzy matching process because a single letter change–usually the initial–is sometimes used to distinguish between two speakers who have the first and last name but are different people.

It would be great if we could still perform fuzzy matching with these names, but ignore the middle initial.
