Missing Players from Roster API - Patreon Subscriber

I'm using the "lookup_all_players" with my API, but have been noticing things don't appear to be up to date (which is a big problem for my use case).

Example 1: Gradey Dick is not listed on the Toronto Raptors Roster
Example 2: Joseph Woll is not listed on the Toronto Maple Leaf Roster
Example 3: Missing "Right Wing" position on all Toronto Maple Leaf players

Hoping I'm just missing something on my end... I was going to use this API for my website, but can't if it isn't up to date.

https://www.thesportsdb.com/team/134864 Checking out the Raptors roster it would appear you're correct and those players are missing, hopefully someone will update it soon. You're also welcome to register as an editor and update it yourself.

Thanks! How do I sign up as a contributor? I went to this link: https://www.thesportsdb.com/contribute_guide, but mostly dead links from here

Yep we rely totally on users to add players most of the time. Simply apply to be an editor and all the functions will appear to add and edit players and artwork.
