[edit] Sources?

I have several problems with the article as it is now:

  1. Who says that he was born in San Louis Oposi? On his own website he says that he was born in Ébano, SLP
  2. How can be the No. 1 Mexican Chessplayer when as of now he is only 3d in the elo-ranking. He was No. 1 in the 90s and beginning of 00s, but not now
  3. You don't present a country in a zonal tournament, that's for individual players
  4. Does someone stay "in the island" instead of "on the island"?
  5. "became a sensation" is more like advertisement than an encyclopaedic article ...

He is Mexico's #1 player as of April 2008, see the FIDE link. Most of your other objections are minor ones that can easily be corrected. I'll do a clean up. Agree it needs sources though.Pawnkingthree (talk) 10:00, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
OK, thank you very much. He was third though in the January FIDE list. --Gereon K. (talk) 12:26, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

It's done, but I don't know whether the license is any good. Rgds, --Gereon K. (talk) 15:55, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
That's not really a valid license for the photography imho though as a friend pointed out. --Gereon K. (talk) 17:12, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
