When I look at
https://www.cpan.org/authors/00whois.xml, I only see 17 that mention perlmonks in the
<homepage> node or anywhere else in that download... so I'm curious what the matching pattern was on the other 14? (Or if you used arcane knowledge, like maybe mapping the whois email to recovery email at perlmonks, that's obviously something I cannot see from
just the whois download).
Using the metacpan API, https://fastapi.metacpan.org/v1/author/_search?q=profile.name:perlmonks&size=200 tells me there are 185 in the metacpan authors list that have set their perlmonks ID in their profile.
It's obviously up to you and the other gods who to include automatically and who must actually request it (and I was happy that I made it in the small window where I could do it myself, though I probably would've ended up /msg-ing if I missed my chance), but if you wanted more to automatically link, that's a slightly more inclusive list. ;-)
(I was also one of the lucky few who was still logged in at metacpan, although I had already set my perlmonks profile there years ago. However, while trying to figure out where I was logged in, I accidentally clicked logout, and there were a few days when, no matter which github or google login I used, I could not log in to metacpan at all. I played around over a few more days as I had bits of time here and there, and eventually tried re-associating my PAUSEID with one of my google logins or my github... that never quite seemed to work, but I eventually found myself logged back into metacpan, with my correct ++ list and my github linked, and my profiles correctly listed; and I was then able to log in using github id on my phone and it was logged in to the same account... So that was nice. But when I tried adding my S.O. profile, it never properly saved (it would say it saved it, but when I refreshed the page, it was back to not listing that profile).)
