In order to help out standings management, it would be great if we could pass a parameter like ?closed=1 to the StandingsList API and get Closed entities included in the API output as at the moment only non closed entities are returned.

This would match what we currently get ingame and allow us to clean up our standings slots easier (So we can make more heathens red)

My guess is he wants to know if somebody on their standings list has now ceased to exist.

That would allow them to actively remove it from the standings and to update any internal documentation (as opposed to just silently deleting it)

Sorry FoxFour.

If you have a corp or alliance that has 0 members and is tagged [CLOSED] ingame, these can still be on your standings list (Because you had them set +5 or -5) and are viewable ingame but not via API.

The API ContactList output does not list these corps/alliances because they are closed.

What I'm requesting is that we can append a variable to the ContactList API that would output a complete standings list as shown ingame - that includes these closed corps/alliances.

This way we can identify and remove standings that are just wasting slots.

"Return closed corporations on the contacts endpoint instead of omitting them and declare them as closed."

It's on my backlog :)
