Talk:Harry Nelson Pillsbury

Lack of citation

edit

Ths article is a mess. It has no sources for the claim that Pillsbury contracted syphilis, and no mention that the Hastings Tournament was considered by some to be a World Championship tournament. It also fails to mention Pillsbury’s marriage in 1901. The lack of citation in the article is particularly glaring considering that Pillsbury was one of the all-time chess greats.

This page does a deep dive into the meanings of the words used in Pillsbury's memory passage quoted in the article. I've created links/redirects for some of these. — The Anome (talk) 09:51, 19 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
