Done, thanks, @tv_capper

If you wish to change it to suit what you think it should be, then you are perfectly entitled to do that, @Grimbles. This percentage only takes the players back to what they were on before relegation, unless they have signed a new deal in the meantime. Across the board, fans of teams that are promoted always under-estimate the wage increases involved in promotion to the Premier League. Many years of comparing estimates to actual financial results, when they are eventually made public, underline this, time and again.

It is not a bug. Burnley players underwent a 45% wage reduction on relegation. To get them back to a similar wage should the club get promoted back to the Prem would take an 82% increase.

Hi @tansey - these have all been input in the database, but may not have been put forward for approval before the cut-off for Content Update 2. They should be in the CU3 update, though. Apologies - and thanks for sending the information.

Thanks @BluebirdsCCFC - apologies, I had missed this; it has now been added to the database.

Thanks @b13v3r - I have amended in the database.

Thanks - this has been changed in the database.

Thanks @CoffeeFueledCurmudgeon - that screenshot is from the editor. The player partnerships have been entered correctly, and seem to be showing up fine, in-game. We will investigate why the partnerships are appearing as you have shown, in the editor.

Thanks @metal_guitarist!

Thanks @jere_d - I will look into why this is. FYI @Dan Ormsby

Thanks @jere_d - this has been raised and replied to, elsewhere:

Thanks, @BanOly - I will amend in the database.

Thanks very much, @mfp40 - I am investigating this issue.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, @LHurlz. Apologies - the game is making the decision to do this on the basis that Bazunu, Caballero, and McCarthy have very similar overall ability ratings, and since Bazunu qualifies for the U21 squad, he becomes the fall guy. It is something that will be sorted in a future data update.

Thanks @JIMBOFMCD - I absolutely agree that this kind of discussion can only be helpful, especially when it is supported by evidence, such as you have provided, re Martinez.

Thanks @roussos - I have amended in the database.

thanks for your input @JIMBOFMCD. In the development process, the closer we get to data deadlock, the less manoeuvrability there is in terms of what data we amend. It depends on factors such as whether it is something that has brought to our attention, how important it is, whether it could have any undesired knock-on effects, and whether it can be done. We have processed 12m data changes since the winter update. The data is constantly changing, reflecting changes in the world of football. In the last few weeks we cannot possibly process everything that everybody wants to be done, or is asking to be done. None of our decision making is based on bias towards either increasing or decreasing attribute ratings. @NickOGS20 is on top of the research, and is always ready to talk about any aspect of the data. The last Maguire/Sancho changes that you quote were made three weeks ago. We had to lock the data for the Early Access Beta some time before it was released, and immediately we were already working on changes to be made for the Full Release version of FM2023 (but again, the scope for the possible amount of changes was still more limited). I think that Nick has explained Garnacho's ratings. I am sorry that you find that those ratings are not as up to date as you would wish them to be, but please feel free to use the editor to adjust his profile to your satisfaction.

Thanks again, @LBall94_ - that is excellent! I have added the missing people to the database.

Thanks very much @McClane29 - I have now added this to the database; apologies for missing it.

Thanks for your input, @mercut1o, @_mark_efc_, and @evertonmarc. The Everton data on which you are commenting is not the data with which the game was released, on Monday: - Board objectives; these were amended before datalock, so that more reasonable targets are identified. - Bernard/Digne partnership; apologies that this one got through - I have now deleted it from the database. - The profiles of the midfield players have been amended so that there is a more realistic balance. - Coady and Tarkowski have been amended to reflect their standing, as opposed to that of Holgate and Keane. - Onana's level of English has been amended to "Fluent". I am sorry that you found the data in the Early Access beta to be disappointing. Please do check how the team is in the release version of FM2023. Your feedback is always appreciated.

Thanks very much, @LBall94_ - that's all very helpful. Gabbianini was another one that I had marked as "Not for Extraction", but unfortunately I did not untick that flag. I cannot find any information regarding Gibbs's return to Spurs. When did he rejoin, and what is his role, please? Chris Perkins is set as Academy Scout, and as such, unfortunately, does not appear in FM2023.

Thanks @Nick OGS20 and @lewisguy - I have amended in the database.

Thanks @Toots1206 - the date of birth has been amended. Thanks, too, @crarfc - to be fair, it is only in the last few weeks that Summerville has started any league matches for Leeds. His excellent rise has been meteoric, and his profile will undergo a thorough review for the next data update.

Thanks @Sir David Moyes. I expect the reason for the behaviour that you describe is that there is a fair amount of blue in the approximated facsimile of the away kit. I will remove that in the database.

Thanks for your input, @JIMBOFMCDand @schwemm - Nick (researcher) has replied elsewhere in data issues threads:
