			=== Discovery from home page ===
			One of the issues is that, when you are sharing your details with others, you usually do not share the About page. You share the top level page, from which there is usually a link.

			There is likely some basic information on that top level page which the About page expands on.

			There is no way to automatically discover that expanded set of details.
