Tango.info person code: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 2008-10-27T15:57:36

The t.i person code consists of ten letters: five derived from the given name followed by five from the family name.

e.g.: FrancCanar, RoberFirpo

If one of the names is shorter than five letters, the code is filled with "a".

e.g.: JuanaDarie

(Juan D'Arienzo, Juan has only four letters, so the first part gets an "a" -> Juana)

The codes are derived from real names at birth.

e.g.: CayetDisar (Carlos Di Sarli)

The codes are used in the urls on several t.i sites. e.g.

For dancers the codes are used to derive t.i couple codes, e.g.: "CarloGavit-y-GeralRojas".

The codes will probably be added to the orchestra genealogy file, compiled by Pascale.
