People

Every person in the database, badged by subtype. 9,708 in this version. Player and Staff mean a row in those tables; Unclassified means the person decoded but their subtype did not. Unclassified people are shown rather than dropped and are never given a guessed subtype — in the newer versions they are a large share of everyone here, and most of them still have a full career in staff_history, which is what the role column reads.

Nationality

Name starts with

Listed in database order, which is the only order person indexes. Pick a nationality to narrow the list far enough that A–Z ordering becomes cheap, or search by name.

Every person is here exactly once, under the subtype the export gave them. The role column reads staff_history, which records a career for a person whatever their subtype — it is usually the only thing an Unclassified row has, because in the newer versions every column of person_unclassified itself is NULL.
