<<chesshistoryinterest> Hope I did not mix you up with someone else :)> I admit to being puzzled by this one(!?) I have never posted here under any other name, at any rate.

I guess there is some latitude with presenting tables. I think I prefer having 'Pts' there because if there's a score of 0, 1, 10 or 11, it can almost look like it's part of the table. Having 'Pts' at the top of the column makes it clearer it isn't to me. I observe that Gaige uses 'Pts', as do Di Felice and McGowan.

I have submitted the first games and wait for them to be included into the database. My text is far more advanced, and I took it out yesterday evening for a greater revision in a normal editor.

My crosstables were done and that was reported here several days ago.

<as the last I saw, your crosstables were not in a completed form.> You have stated earlier today that your criterion for inclusion is that games can be rated. Well, mine is historical correctness. Therefore the meaning of "completeness" can differ.

Holzwarth's games will stay in the round list and I intend to include his only surviving game into the tournament, of course.

Unfortunately, the three cases seem to be different.

There is one game now twice in the database: G Marco vs J Schwarz, 1895, and G Marco vs J Schwarz, 1895. Please delete the second one. (And there is a typo in the first one: 'Viann' instead of 'Vienna'.)

The game Meitner vs Schlechter, 1895 belongs to another event.

And the game that was rejected was this one: J Schwarz vs Max Weiss, 1895. I included it already in my game collection, but the event should be changed and the [Source "Algemeen Handelsblad, 14 June 1895 (morning issue)"] should be added.

Now about which game to delete when there are duplicates: the consideration is not which one has the correct details, but which one has kibitzing, is included in game collections, or is in the Guess-the-Move game database. In this case, there's no kibitzing on either game, no other collections (other than yours, so at least you will be aware if I delete it), but the older game IS in the Guess-the-Move. I don't want to lose those statistics, so I am deleting the new game, and updating the details of the older one instead.

<tournament/match> Well, if I had written such a heuristic, I would have checked whether 'tournament' or 'match' already appears in the name.

May the best one(s) win.

<jnpope> You can add a crosstable and additional data like match conditions and prize information to both of those events.

Every game is assigned to a "tid" (which means "tournament ID number", not to be confused with the TI), but only the relatively full and orderly tournaments are entered into the TI (either by 5 editor votes - look at the top of the page, you can try out your editor powers right now if you want, just click the "vote on collections" link - or by me), which makes them searchable, kibitzable, gives them an intro section, and turns every reference to the event (the event name in the titles of all games belonging to it, homepage game and player search results, etc.) into links to the tournament page.

Search for Brand you get:
search "Brand"

Search for Mouret v Brand you get:
search "Mouret v Brand"

So the game is already here... well at least I can update "J. Brand" to "John Brand"... and provide some bio background...
