There's probably a way to pull all of this information automatically from NAQT's public results pages and fill out the page in one stroke - maybe someone could talk to Jonah or R. about doing this in a way that won't DOS the server or cause any unanticipated conflicts over rights to the data.

I'm open to it but not excited about it. Stuff like "X goes undefeated" is doable; stuff like "Y clears the field" isn't well-defined in a way we could technically extract, as far as I can think of. It also introduces annoying questions like "what about tournaments that used multiple question sets?". I'm also not really sure what problem this page is trying to solve, if any. Pages like this might be helpful. —Jonah (talk) 18:47, 24 January 2022 (CST)
