Shouldn't this article be merged with Chess strategy and tactics? --jacobolus (t) 11:39, 25 May 2005 (UTC)
In the external sites, it currently reads: "www.chesstactics.org - Awesome site"
The word 'awesome' strikes me as inappropriate, some how. Also, the site is nothing special anyhow. Tommy-Chivs 16:33, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

There are at least two links to blog content in the links section. The content of the blogs is related to the topic, but are blog links likely to have any staying power? Isn't it also an invitation to a bunch of blog spam?
Unfortunately the diagram is wrong -- Morphy's queen is on b3, not c3. Technically, one could just change the caption ("a position similar to Morphy vs Consult..."), but then the text "In the left diagram, black can't move the knight without losing the queen" remains problematic, since ...Nd5 or ...Nxe4 require further explanation. Ideal would be to correct the error in the diagram, but I'm not sure how to upload a corrected chessboard image. Thanks! --98.194.83.52 06:02, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
many of the external links were blatant spam links to paid chess websites, i deleted these and some other minor links that linked to examples of tactics and were repetitive Rubico (talk) 09:35, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
The section on computers is definitely a copyright violation. Perhaps someone will rewrite it, but I don't think it needs to be in this article anyway (one on computer chess would be better). So I recommend deleting it rather than rewriting it. Bubba73 (You talkin' to me?), 22:32, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
I don't see any sources saying pawns are better placed on both colors (of squares) than just one (in a pawn chain). In fact, these pawns are weaker because of the lack of mutual support. But I'm not an expert, and would like others' opinions.Jasper Deng (talk) 02:10, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
Animated example of a relative fork attack is bad because this fork does not cause any threat: the knight is defended by the rook, and the rook can easily continue to defend it after moving to avoid the threat. --D.M. from Ukraine (talk) 21:45, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

I don't have time to go through and assess them all right now but someone needs to get rid of the spam, per WP:ELNO. MaxBrowne2 (talk) 05:30, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
