45th Chess Olympiad

Nominator(s): Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 13:38, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about an international team chess tournament in the spirit of the Olympic Games that took place in Budapest, Hungary in September 2024. The article was reviewed and subsequently improved in the previous FA nomination, but it did not receive much traction by reviewers and was eventually archived without promoting the article.

Edwininlondon's comments

Glad to see this back for another attempt. With fresh eyes I read the article again. My comments:

current world number one Magnus Carlsen --> we have number 2 for Nakamura. Consistency needed. I would spell it out, so it's in line with "top ten"
as "seminal moment in chess history" --> as a "seminal moment in chess history"
I'm no specialist in hyphens and can't figure out MOS:HYPHEN, but I see "from the top ten players according to the FIDE rating list" as well as "who were both among the top-ten rated players in the world". Can both be correct?
Dana Kochavi as a reserve player had the best performance of all players in the tournament with a rating of 2676 --> this was already mentioned in the previous paragraph
warning messages by the IOC --> spell out IOC and link (remove later link)
the Promotional activities paragraph seems excessively long. Perhaps break up and/or trim.
CEO of Chess.com Daniel Rensch --> I believe his title is Chief Chess Officer
the Sanctions against Russia and Belarus section seems disproportionally long. Would it not be better to fork this off into its own article? Or see if some of the background can be cut.
one-two days --> one to two days
winning less votes than Jorge Arias Bouzada --> winning fewer votes than Jorge Arias Bouzada

I'll do a spot check of sources tomorrow. Edwininlondon (talk) 17:28, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your additional review. I've taken care of all suggestions. As for the "Sanctions against Russia and Belarus" section, I moved much of its content to the newly created article documenting the concerns and controversies.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 21:51, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Spotcheck:

#74 ok
#52b does not seem to cover "even though they were not among the main pre-tournament favourites"
#3 seems a personal blog and therefore not FA quality. Plus the relevant text seems to be copied from "Árpád Földeák's book on the Olympiads". #4 #7 and #10 therefore also need to be addressed
#5 ok
#14 ok
#23 ok
#58 source Guardian is missing
#136 also missing source. Maybe check all references if any more need source
#61 ok
#59 does not seem to mention the points, so for 59a ref 52 needs to be added
#36 is a bit too much of a straight copy paste of the source
#38 ok
#55 ok
#50 title is given in Camel Case, unlike other titles. And it doesn't seem to cover the claim "Hungary's first team had the ninth highest pre-tournament average rating" Edwininlondon (talk) 11:50, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've replaced OlimpBase with books as more reliable sources, made corrections in the other sources you noted and went through all references to check for missing parameters (there were few missing sources and one missing access date). Regarding the titles, only those by Chess.com are in upper camel case, whereas all others are in lower camel case. Do you prefer converting all to lower camel case?--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 22:54, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Alt text shouldn't duplicate caption. Nikkimaria (talk) 05:24, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review. I've shortened the alt text so that it doesn't duplicate the caption.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 07:40, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
