thanks for improvements to chess articles

[edit]

Thanks for your improvements to chess articles. Your additions to king (chess) explaining some tactical uses of the king are especially good. If you used sources it would be good to WP:CITE them in the article. Inline citing can be a little bit technical if you're a new editor, so don't stress over it. Other editors can help. I did revert addition of point values to the article leads for pawn and queen because "1 point" and "9 points" don't mean anything in isolation and the explanation required isn't appropriate for the first sentence of an article. But thanks again for your help improving chess pages on Wikipedia. You're welcome to join Wikipedia:WikiProject Chess if you like, and may find the discussions of current ideas about editing chess pages at WT:CHESS to be of interest.
