Hello,
unique IDs to ensure a *high-quality* cannot be achieved. How should the ID
be calculated? Experience shows that any attributes of a game can be
inconsistent: names, location, date, result and even moves. So the only
solution is to have smart duplicate checking. Scid has one 60 times faster
than chessbase but the algorithm can be improved to find potential
duplicates. If let say 95% of the properties are equal including the moves
or if the moves differ only in one move, caused by a wrong input. Smart
handling of commented games is another interesting area.

Betreff: Re: [Scid-users] ScidBase?
This project dates to the days me and Alex were arguing with Pascal
for the need to add unique IDs to games.
Pascal said that adding IDs to games would slow Scid too much.
Without unique IDs, trying to have a *high-quality* database is way to
error-prone to my own taste.
If we can design some objective ways to insure quality-control, I
could be back in.
