| Submission declined on 4 November 2023 by Wingwatchers (talk). The notability of this article is unclear because it is not supported by high-quality, reliable source. Reference WP:RSPSOURCES. Also a person simply with International FIDE Rating and develop some random chess tool does not justify notability | |

Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject. | |
