And I'm moving it to My System; I don't see any need for the disambiguating "(Book)", since I can't think of any other articles which might reasonably have that name (if I'm wrong, and it is needed, then it ought to be with a lower case initial). --Camembert13:04, 12 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree with the move. I feel that the article should be mainly about the book as first published, not later translations. — Bcat (talk | email) 19:52, 12 July 2005 (UTC) Never mind, I misunderstood the policy on this. — Bcat (talk | email) 15:32, 17 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Reviving this old discussion, I suggest that the rename was wrong. It is the German edition (Mein System) of the book which is famous, more so than its English translation, so the German page title is probably to be prefered. For a precedent, consider Mein Kampf.

I'm not so sure. This is the English Wikipedia. In English writing Hitler's book is almost always referred to by its German title, but this book is most commonly called by its English title. Bubba73(talk), 04:58, 31 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with Bubba73. This needs research, but in my recollection, My System is almost always used in English-language chess writing. Evidence to the contrary is welcomed. Otherwise the page should remain at its current title. Quale (talk) 17:06, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
That's generally my experience, but I've seen the German a few times too. I just thought I'd put the question out there, but I'll take your opinions as a consensus to not change. Peter Ballard (talk) 07:44, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Die Blockade, an earlier brochure which A.N. references frequently in My System. It was not available in an English translation for decades.
Chess Praxis: The Praxis of My System, a followup book which illustrated and expanded A.N.'s theories.
On another note, Raymond Keene's book, Aron Nimzowitsch: A Reappraisal (later retitled Aron Nimzowitsch - Master of Planning) has the transcript of an interview with Bent Larsen who repeatedly states that Nimzowitch's "system" is not a system at all. --72.70.22.170 (talk) 11:18, 30 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
