Confirmation of existence edit
Could someone please confirm the main statement of this article, i.e. the position after 1.d4 Nf6 2.Nf3 g6 is called "East Indian Defence" ? I have looked on Google, in Gallagher's Beating Anti-King's Indians and in Golubev's Understanding the King's Indian but I have not find confirmation of that. Has someone a relevant source about this name ? SyG 18:50, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the links Voorlandt! I will add one in the article as a reference. SyG 22:27, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
- All of the links quoted above are dead. "East Indian Defence" is not found in any authoritative source on opening nomenclature. Besides the Oxford Companion and online databases, I can't find a single source that uses this term. In addition, the opening has no independent significance and would not satisfy WP:GNG anyway. Propose merging to Indian Defence. Cobblet (talk) 01:57, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
- 2017 and still not notable. Should be merged. 2001:470:C328:1:0:0:1:A23E (talk) 16:14, 24 May 2017 (UTC)
