• 04:2204:22, 21 January 2012 diff hist +6 m Vera Menchik →International Tournament Results: Corrected the Wikipedia link.
• 04:2004:20, 21 January 2012 diff hist +18 Vera Menchik →International Tournament Results: As Peter Ballard correctly noted on the Talk Page, Ramsgate 1929 was a Schevevingen match, not a tournament, and hence, it's a bit silly to say Menchik finished ahead or behind people from her own team!

• 03:2903:29, 21 January 2012 diff hist −113 Claude Bloodgood →External links: Removed a very biased, factually wrong article from the list of references. Specific reasons why are covered in the Talk page.

• 01:1701:17, 21 January 2012 diff hist +198 m Eero Böök Book played only one game against Max Euwe and won it. While that is technically a "plus record", it's purposefully misleading to state it this way, since "plus record" usually means two opponents played each other many times. Also added refs.
• 01:0901:09, 21 January 2012 diff hist 0 m Vera Menchik →Women's World Championship: Tiny bit of punctuation clean-up.
• 01:0801:08, 21 January 2012 diff hist +374 m Vera Menchik →International Tournament Results: Added further references, slightly expanded the section.
• 00:5800:58, 21 January 2012 diff hist +26 m Vera Menchik Fixing more lousy structuring on my part!
• 00:5600:56, 21 January 2012 diff hist −6 m Vera Menchik →International Tournament Results: Fixed my screwed-up reference tags.
• 00:5400:54, 21 January 2012 diff hist +2,777 Vera Menchik Significantly expanded the tournament results section, added headings, etc.

• 23:5423:54, 19 January 2012 diff hist +13 m Géza Füster Fixed my reference tags. The name of the tournament wasn't showing up before.
• 13:1713:17, 19 January 2012 diff hist −5 m Carl August Walbrodt Fixed the grammar and punctuation.
• 12:5912:59, 19 January 2012 diff hist −472 Braslav Rabar This entire section is wild speculation, and suffers from a very biased POV. Rabar never became a GM because he didn't meet the very specific list of criteria FIDE used to determine the title. There's no such thing as "clear GM territory", either.
• 12:5412:54, 19 January 2012 diff hist −94 m Braslav Rabar Unsubstantiated and factually incorrect statement removed. Considering that back then, the regulation for the GM title was playing in a Candidates' Matches, of which Rabar never came close to reaching, saying he was playing at "GM Strength" is false.
• 12:4512:45, 19 January 2012 diff hist −23 m Géza Füster Fixed an error.
• 12:4312:43, 19 January 2012 diff hist +83 m Géza Füster Adding more context plus a reference.
• 12:2512:25, 19 January 2012 diff hist −348 Géza Füster After doing some research, this story is patently false. As detailed in the Talk section, all 6 people that beat Fuster at the event were "aspiring IMs".

• 12:0512:05, 19 January 2012 diff hist +19 m Géza Füster Really need a citation for this story.
• 12:0412:04, 19 January 2012 diff hist +35 m Claude Bloodgood Okay, got it. Made the section a bit clearer.

• 11:0411:04, 17 January 2012 diff hist −236 m David Bronstein Made certain parts of the last section a little more neutral. It was a bit biased, with a strong point of view before, as noted by others in the Talk page.
• 04:3504:35, 17 January 2012 diff hist +68 m Isidor Gunsberg Citation added!
• 04:3204:32, 17 January 2012 diff hist −2 m Isidor Gunsberg Poor grammar
• 04:3104:31, 17 January 2012 diff hist +25 m Isidor Gunsberg Fixed a link, added a little bit of information.
• 04:3004:30, 17 January 2012 diff hist −2 m Isidor Gunsberg Got rid of an extra pair of square brackets.
• 04:2904:29, 17 January 2012 diff hist +1,544 Isidor Gunsberg The statements about Chess Strength are highly subjective, and frankly, dubious. Chessmetrics is not the end-all, be-all indicator, nor does it claim to be. I've included it, but made things more neutral.
• 04:0604:06, 17 January 2012 diff hist +17 m David Bronstein Just a better, more clearer heading. Refers to a specific time and opponent. The information about the match being drawn (and Botvinnik thus retaining) is included below, anyways.
• 01:2301:23, 17 January 2012 diff hist −104 m Claude Bloodgood As someone else noted in the Talk page, how the heck is getting mated in two moves "better" than simply resigning?!

• 00:4900:49, 17 January 2012 diff hist −150 m David Bronstein Loose sentence from the edit summary slipped in, and I slightly changed a statement about Bronstein's strength; he was an amazing, legendary genius, but saying he could handle ANY position as well as or better than ANY other player is a bit much.
