I wish I knew more about merging. I'm assuming it would use the most recently added data if it receives 2 edits of the same player. I guess all I can do for now with those players is give over my data and have sporadic (or who else has access to the main file) edit it himself. I've also talked to the chief editor at SI for Africa and gotten on board with him. I'll ask him about whether you guys could work with the official researchers for those countries to get the database legitimised and see what happens from there. Edit: ...provided you aren't already. And they probably already know about you.

That's not what I meant I am using the editor, it's just that if there's players that have been created within the editor data made by this forum, then I wouldn't be able to edit and send my edits of those players without sending the whole rest of the editor data as well, which is a pretty large file.

I have info on most of the teams in Congo, can I send it to you via DM? I can't edit players created by the DB so I can't do all the editing.

I don't know how helpful this is, but if you have accurate enough information on the teams, you could send it to SI themselves. The head researcher for Africa is a guy called Blue Lou, and there's also Lukafanzer who contributes too. Also, I found the entire squad for FC Renaissance, updated to March 2020. It's on their French language team page on wikipedia. My editor data is accurate up to September 2019 (c. the start of the game) and a couple players have left (Yannick Tusilu and Zoumana Sidibe) and the manager too. I only found accurate DOBs for 8 of the players. Also, Jeremie Basilua plays for them but he's not set to them in the DB. My last resort to find the last DOBs (trust me, it was VERY difficult to find what I found) would be to message one of the half a dozen FB pages the club has. Updates will continue to come. Edit: I only posted the update publicly to show that I could. I'll send it across privately when I got more to show. Josh's editor data - DR Congo.fmf

I'm currently editing a few things by myself, I'll send across the editor data files when I'm finished for the day

I'd like to help. I can look into squad updates for some of the teams in DR Congo that don't have any players. Heritier Nke moved from FC Renaissance to Simba: https://www.footballdatabase.eu/en/player/details/284833-heritier-nke Christian Ngimbi plays for Motema Pembe: https://www.footballdatabase.eu/en/player/details/283957-christian-ngimbi Moloko Ducapel is also known as Jesus Moloko (taken from Vita Club FB page) https://www.facebook.com/pg/As-Vclub-club-plus-populaires-en-nafrique-central-1473200102994079/posts/ I've been looking for players from Renaissance FC. So far I have found one: https://www.worldfootball.net/player_summary/nzungu-mafuana/ https://globalsportsarchive.com/people/soccer/mafuana-nzungu/170788/ Been looking into a player called Rashidi Many Asumani who used to play for Renaissance. Found his FB profile and a FB group linked to his name. It is the only piece of information on him updated to 2019. He plays for Motema Pembe too AFAIK, as he is wearing their shirt. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1351864744970000/ https://www.facebook.com/many.asumani?hc_ref=ART2g-jZdCVMj7ok_VhMcVnLswt0bdm7RLhKv6_2NNiolRs8honkV-PHTuMG4pn8WUg His football talents page hasn't been updated since 2012 but it does contain his DOB: http://www.football-talents.co.uk/Rashidi_Asumani-3_7-208395-2.html If it's best I can edit these players (and others) in the database and link the changes on here so you can use them. I also have extra data on players from Nigeria and Sudan. More to come. Edit: I have a personal DB where I've edited players from Vietnam and Kuwait. If anyone is doing one of these for asia, I'll be happy to help.

You've deleted the team Viettel and not replaced them with anyone. That's why the database won't work.
