Wikidata provides an open identity seed and cross-check. Transfermarkt-derived open datasets from dcaribou and authorised historical datasets from salimt and worldfootballR support reviewed identity, appearance, valuation and transfer context. Sources with the same upstream origin are not treated as independent confirmation.
Current profiles may use reduced, reviewed outputs from licensed football-data services while a covering entitlement is active. Understat observations accessed through pinned soccerdata tooling and worldfootballR archives are used only where the exact snapshot, identity and metric meaning have cleared review. Raw provider feeds, provider IDs and reusable data exports are not published.
BrazilianFootball/Data supplies pinned 2025 match-docket evidence used for reviewed minute calculations and discovery work. It is attributed under its MIT licence. Competition records are reconciled to a separate canonical identity before publication.
Reviewed adult photography comes from Wikimedia Commons. Every displayed image retains its own author attribution, source-page link and licence. A Commons listing never creates one blanket licence for every file.
A bounded September 2026 audit matched 121 of the ranked 250 to DataMB's current-season public radar cohort, 124 across either reviewed season and 30 of the Top 50. This is a coverage and identity check only. DataMB rows, provider percentiles, similarity results and its Performance Index do not enter the public player release or Wonderkid Score.
Wonderkid Score, ranking selection, scouting copy, comparison design, estimated transfer-worth ranges and original visualizations are Wonderkid Scout editorial outputs. The scoring architecture and internal source crosswalks are proprietary.
Football facts and third-party materials remain subject to their respective rights. Attribution identifies a source; it does not imply that the source endorses Wonderkid Scout.
