-- and do NOT assign unreferenced squad numbers as well.
-- Do NOT create articles for new draft picks until they make either their NASL or US Open Cup debut, and do not add red wikilinks to these players as it prevents the creation of articles by people who do not understand the WP:FOOTY notability guidelines
