Does Go (board game) really belong here? I don't see how go is a chess topic any more than checkers or Stratego or tic-tac-toe is a chess topic. Krakatoa 23:50, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Huh. I see that Checkers is also listed. That seems weird to me, too. Krakatoa 23:50, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

I've found that some articles just mention chess once. Something like "bridge is the chess of card games" (fabricated example). Bubba73 (talk), 02:34, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Seperate out biographies?

Do you think it would be good to seperate the list into biographies and other articles? The bio section would consist of only biographies, A-Z by last name, the other section would have all other articles, A-Z. Just a thought. Bubba73 (talk), 15:11, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] use actual article name, not a redirect

For items on this list, please be sure to use the name of the actual article and not one that redirects to it. The reason is so it will show up under "related changes". Bubba73 (talk), 18:48, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] bio tag

It would be good if we put a line like this one at the top of the discussion page

{{WPBiography|living=no|class=|importance=}}

Put in yes/no for "living". I've done it for a few, but there must be many without such a tag. Bubba73 (talk), 02:32, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Not sure if that was the best template

But I do think this list is poorly organized. A simple alphabetical list works for content that is about a single subject, but this is about multiple subjects only related by one topic. I think it might be more helpful to organize it by subtopic. Mister.Manticore 17:12, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Not too long ago I suggested that the list be divided in biographies and non-biographies. Openings could also be seperated out. Also see Category:Chess. Bubba73 (talk), 17:30, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
Sounds like a start. I also suggest a section on organizations and competitive play. Mister.Manticore 17:35, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
