Talk:List of draughts players

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm more of a checkers than a chess kind of guy so I'm trying to increase coverage. I tried to limit to names that seemed important to the game or had a page on both the Estonian and Dutch ones.--T. Anthony 06:44, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

I added some important names in English draughts. --Vagodin ^Talk 05:23, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. I keep meaning to actually write articles for some of these people. I did Moisiyev at the start, but I think that's all so far from me.(Also I keep wanting to just call it Checkers, but for an international audience checkers means something a bit different it seems)--T.

[edit] That should be enough for now

I'm taking this off my watch list. Any notable names left to fill can be handled by those interested. I might check it though from time to time.--T. Anthony 04:50, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Could someone please explain why "asshole" is on the list of human plavers?

Because the entry for James Wyllie, an actual draughts/checkers champ with an article I created, was replaced with the word "a****le." I see that Wylie became but a memory so was not returned after removing the obscenity.--T. Anthony 04:41, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
