Talk:Neustadtl score

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I scratched my head a bit over where to put this article. I think it's fair to say that the system is normally called "Sonneborn-Berger", so one could argue that it should be at Sonneborn-Berger score (which for now I have made redirect to here); certainly, this would fit in with Wikipedia:Naming conventions (common names). The problem is that one day we might want to have an article on the system Sonneborn and Berger actually proposed, and that could only really go at Sonneborn-Berger score. This is the reason why I've decided to follow the Oxford Companion to Chess's lead and place this article here, at Neustadtl score. If somebody disagrees with my reasoning and wants to move it to Sonneborn-Berger score, then I won't argue--it was a pretty tight call, to be honest.

Incidentally, if somebody could check I've got my sums right in the crosstable, it'd be much appreciated. --Camembert 19:54, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

I do not think the matter of putting the article under either name is important. What I miss is information on what was the actual system proposed by Sonnenborn and Berger. If you write the article on it I will appreciate it very much. Best regards. Well done. --alfanje 20:32, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
