• Delete, Not Notable - however a good idea. There should be a page about chess players, the only one I found was Bobby Fischer (but I didn't search too hard!) Martin TB 18:16, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Anatoly Karpov, Viktor Korchnoi, Boris Spassky, Tigran Petrosian, Yasser Seirawan who took some of my money once when he was young and hustling, and actually an immense [[Category:Chess players]] which looks offhand like most of the big names are there, although I also didn't look too hard. -- Jmabel | Talk 09:01, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)

• Delete: Vanity page -- he discovered women and alcohol (i.e. he's now in the throes of adolescence). A table of Grandmasters at chess would be cool, but breakouts of every chess player of any strength would be chasing the horizon. Geogre 21:31, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)

• Delete. He's just a strong County-level chess player in a country that rarely has more than one or two Chess Grandmasters at any one time. I suppose he could blame his lack of top form by pointing out that his opponents always insist on playing White. I'll get me coat... --[[User:Tony Sidaway|Tony Sidaway|Talk]] 13:05, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• No Delete. Shall we decide this with a game of chess? A postal match between the Whitester and the champion of his detractors. If Russter wins, the article stays, if his detractor wins then the article is gone
• How about "the article is going to be gone anyway" instead? Delete. - Lucky 6.9 22:16, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)

• Delete. Comcat
• Delete. Vanity page. --MPerel 22:07, Dec 9, 2004 (UTC)
