It looks like our group and the organizer have their footprints laminated already in the annals of chess history.

Hey, what about us?

too bad, some of the editors labeled it a spam so i'm creating a new wikipedia entry.

Bogolyubov in online chess

Interest in chess has been growing tremendously every year since the introduction of internet chess servers or ICS. Chess servers like the Internet Chess Club and chess.com, among others, create a global community of chess enthusiasts playing and interacting online and form chess organizations and subgroups based on citizenship, social interests, or openings. At chess.com, a player by the username Yigor, or Igor Potemin(e) in real life and a professor of pure mathematics in Toulouse III University in France, is the organizer and leader of an online group called the Bogolyubov Variations.

The Bogolyubov Variations host thematic tournaments and team match ups in the Bogo-Indian Defence regularly. It also promotes and moderates forum discussions pertaining to the chess legacies of Bogolyubov, particularly, the French: Winawer-Bogolyubov, Bogo-Nimzo-Scandinavian, Bogo-Nimzo-Indian, and Bogo-Indian Defences.

I don't think it is out of line though. I think the entry is just appropriate considering the current trends in information sharing. that is connecting the past to what is today. We might be surprised later on 100 years from now that the online group is still an entry, and we are still revising it.,,,ooopsSmile

So pardon my being detached from reality. I was just saying something nice to hear which oftentimes is not necessarily true.Smile a virtual group photo would be nice.Smile

Actually, this is my one and only contribution to wikipedia.

and that would be considered online vandalism, right? it is a fitting entry to the page and  to the man himself and i think mrs.hudson would agree.Smile

Вряд ли, тут Sollevy действительно  проявил инициативу, сделал рекламу. Удивительно что в Википедии пока оставили всё это в первичной редакции.Smile
