Currently, the pattern [a-z]{5}[01][0-9]{2} is used to check whether a person_id is also a valid player_id. However this pattern fails for players who have last names shorter than 4 letters, such as Gavin Lux (lux-g001) or Chin-lung Hu (hu--c001). I've updated the pattern to [-a-z]{5}[01][0-9]{2} to allow for this type of player.
