Talk:Bruce Pandolfini

This is a major figure in chess and there is only this little stub about him? And, though it is not terribly written... it could use vast improvements. It could also use a lot, lot more research. Weirdly, this article is rated highly which just goes to show that those ratings mean nothing. Gingermint (talk) 05:29, 17 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

This is one of those weird weak points of Wikipedia - it has stunning info on other things, but then odd gaps like this one. The problem is the Original Research category - how do you say stuff that's supposed to be "obvious" when suddenly people get all "citation-y" on it? So I'll try an article edit, but if it gets bounced then that just goes to show. Also, how do we affect the importance scale? He was chosen for the movie (and they got the character wrong!) precisely *because* he was so important in the chess teaching world in those days. TaoPhoenix (talk) 00:01, 18 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

How is it rated highly??? It is rated in the "stub" class, which is the lowest class. Feel free to improve it - we would all appreciate it. Bubba73 ^{You talkin' to me?} 06:02, 17 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

I knew his in-laws, Bea and Bill Abrams. They died within a short time of each other in the early nineties. He has a daughter who I have met. She would be in her twenties or maybe thirties now.They (the grandparents) lived in Queens He would not let his wife bear his name. This obviously needs research. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sesquepedalia (talk • contribs) 18:36, 28 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

To all: The article on Bruce has grown somewhat beyond "stub" level. I move that it's time to move it up to at least "Start," if not a C-level. There is much more that needs to be done yet, but the amount of information offered is larger than a simple brief note-type page. Is it still being called a stub because it uses the stub template?
