E.g. to get results for the 9-dan Cho Chikun, like this: http://gobase.org/information/players/?pp=Cho+Chikun, what we can do is:
 * 1) Use a link like the one above, with the player's name
 * 2) This should bring up a list of that player's GoBase info..
 * 3) The resulting URL (as in the example above) is then available to use as a reference for that player.
 * 4) Also, look at the line within GoBase, that is entitled www. If it has a website shown (as it does for Cho Chikun), then that too is then available to use as a further reference for that player. A large proportion of such a web page may be in say Japanese, but it should clearly back up the claimed name, grade and affiliation.

E.g. to get results from the Nihon Ki-in for the 9-dan Cho Chikun, (http://www.nihonkiin.or.jp/player/htm/ki000004.htm), what we can do is:
 * 1) Construct a search within www.nihonkiin.or.jp/player/ for the player concerned, e.g. use a URL like this one for Cho Chikun, and then modify the contents, for the name of the player you're seeking:  http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=cho+chikun+site%3Awww.nihonkiin.or.jp%2Fplayer%2F&hl=en&num=10&lr=&ft=i&cr=&safe=off&tbs=
 * 2) The resulting search page lists the URLs for any entries for that player on the Nihon Kiin site.  E.g. in the case of Cho Chikun, it lists two URLS (note that you have to add http:// in front):  * http://www.nihonkiin.or.jp/player/player-e/cho-chikun.htm   and   * http://www.nihonkiin.or.jp/player/htm/ki000004.htm
 * 3) The URL(s) thus shown are then available to use as reference(s) for that player.
 * 4) The links would probably also show personal & professional details for the player - e.g. tournaments won, rank, DOB, where born, their sensei (master/teacher) & perhaps some of their insei (players whom they have taught).  These details may be added to the player's WP article.
