Talk:Endgame study
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] old talk
Just wanted to give the author (as I write there has only been one) a pat on the back for a good page. It's always annoying when someone writes a good page and it appears that noone noticed (actually probably rarely the case but that is not so clear after the page view counter was turned off) Today I noticed this page!

[edit] Reti study date
When was the Rety study first published, and where? the main text says 1922, but the text above the diagrm says 1921. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.229.254.228 (talk • contribs)
- Not sure about that. Chernov gives 1921, but it might not have been published until 1922. Bubba73 (talk), 01:38, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

- For a long time, there was a lot of confusion about this: the study was often dated as 1921, but (if I remember correctly) nobody was sure of a source including it before 1922 (when I added it originally, I imagine I took the source information from Test Tube Chess, which is by now very probably out of date on this point). The source added above the diagram (Ostrauer Morgenzeitung, 4. 12. 1921) by User:Rainer Staudte (who probably knows what they're talking about better than me) is very specific, and I think it's to be trusted. --Camembert 13:57, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
