Reply on Bobby Fisher's article: Salut Miron. The passage I removed contravenes good article writing: It breaks in two segments; the later segment (explaining that Fisher playing black means the computer played first) is redundant in an article about chess. The first segment suggests that playing black was such an enormous disadvantage for Fisher, and in that sense it is deceiving. Once this is seen, it remains to decide if there is any factual, non-misleading information that ought to stay if reworded. The whole sentence could have been condensed into "Fisher played black in the first game." This is now a trivial fact that cheapens a biographical account of Fisher's outstanding career, so I did not include it.

I hope this reply is satisfying. Yrodro (talk) 14:46, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
