[edit] Josif Dorfman

I moved the article back to Josif Dorfman, as this is the common and preferred English spelling of his name. (See WP:ENGLISH.) Both external links use Josif rather than Iossif. Dorfman is known as a chess player, and FIDE, the world-wide governing body of chess, lists his name as "Josif D Dorfman".[1] This page, along with those of about a dozen other chess players, was mass renamed contrary to WP policy and guidelines.

[edit] Birth

He was born in 1952, not 1953 - that informaction is absolutety correct, I gave it from IM Krzysztof Pytel, who knows J.Dorfman personally. pjahr 12:45, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
