Re: Query re name not listed on site
Thank you - and much appreciated.
(While you may or may not know) How does a name get added to the official site - so that it comes with all the other accompanying info?

Sorry for the late response. Ultimately, it is up to the main editor (Mike C.) to include a name on the main site. The names are generally not announced until before the site update and I am not very aware of his methodology.

I’m also curious about this, to be honest. I see lots of completely verified names in the submitted names that never get added.

Mike C has thousands of names to sort through and he does it all on his own time. As far as I'm aware he still has a full time job and family. So, as you might imagine, adding names takes times and he wants to make sure the names are legitimate, have appropriate documentation of use, and are added in a timely manner. We can cut him some slack. Its a never ending database.
