Fuseki.Info

E.g. to get results for the 9-dan Shuchi Kubouchi - like this, what we can do is:

1. Click on this link, (you may prefer to open it in a secondary tab or window). This opens up a list of all professional games on that site.
2. The box to the left of Search initially contains Date. Change it to say Player.
3. In the empty box to the left of Player, type in the player's given name and/or surname.
4. Click on the Search button. This should bring up a list of that player's results, and their rank.
5. If you didn't enter the player's full name, click on the player you're looking for, in the resulting list of games. This should limit the games to those in which that one professional played.
6. The resulting URL (as in the example above) is then available to use as a reference for that player.

GoBase.Org

E.g. to get results for the 9-dan Cho Chikun, like this: http://gobase.org/information/players/?pp=Cho+Chikun, what we can do is:

1. Use a link like the one above, with the player's name
2. This should bring up a list of that player's GoBase info..
3. The resulting URL (as in the example above) is then available to use as a reference for that player.
4. Also, look at the line within GoBase, that is entitled www. If it has a website shown (as it does for Cho Chikun), then that too is then available to use as a further reference for that player. A large proportion of such a web page may be in say Japanese, but it should clearly back up the claimed name, grade and affiliation.

nihonkiin.or.jp

E.g. to get results from the Nihon Ki-in for the 9-dan Cho Chikun, (http://www.nihonkiin.or.jp/player/htm/ki000004.htm), what we can do is:

1. Construct a search within www.nihonkiin.or.jp/player/ for the player concerned,
   e.g. use a URL like this one for Cho Chikun, and then modify the contents, for the name of the player you're seeking:
   http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=cho+chikun+site%3Awww.nihonkiin.or.jp%2Fplayer%2F&hl=en&num=10&lr=&ft=i&cr=&safe=off&tbs=
2. The resulting search page lists the URLs for any entries for that player on the Nihon Kiin site.
   E.g. in the case of Cho Chikun, it lists two URLs (note that you have to add http:// in front):
   * http://www.nihonkiin.or.jp/player/player-e/cho-chikun.htm and
   * http://www.nihonkiin.or.jp/player/htm/ki000004.htm
3. The URL(s) thus shown are then available to use as reference(s) for that player.
4. The links would probably also show personal & professional details for the player - e.g. tournaments won, rank, DOB, where born, their sensei (master/teacher) & perhaps some of their insei (players whom they have taught). These details may be added to the player's WP article.

American Go Association

E.g. to get results from the American Go Association for the 6-dan player Mingjiu Jiang, what we can do is:

1. Construct a search within www.usgo.org for the player concerned,
   e.g. use a URL like this one for Mingjiu Jiang, and then modify the contents, for the name of the player you're seeking:
   http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=site%3Awww.usgo.org+Mingjiu+Jiang&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
2. The URL(s) thus shown (in this case 212 of them!) are then potentially available to use as reference(s) for that player. Common sense, allied with browsing the article's statements, will lead one to use the best URLs from those that appear.

GoGameWorld

E.g. to get results from the GoGameWorld for the 9-dan player Yamashita Keigo, what we can do is:

1. Construct a search within www.gogameworld.com for the player concerned,
   e.g. use a URL like this one for Yamashita Keigo, and then modify the contents, for the name of the player you're seeking:
   http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=site%3Awww.usgo.org+Mingjiu+Jiang&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a#sclient=psy&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US%3Aofficial&source=hp&q=site:www.gogameworld.com+Yamashita+Keigo&aq=&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&pbx=1&fp=de610b7113b09eab
2. The URL(s) thus shown will hopefully contain at least one saying "Player Profile for Yamashita Keigo ...". Check it, and if it's ok then it is potentially available to use as a reference for that player.
