Talk:Alvis Vītoliņš

Questions
I consulted Jeremy Gaige, Chess Personalia (1987), to try to source some of the basic biographical data in the article. Gaige agrees with our article on date of birth, but gives Ventspils as the birthplace rather than Sigulda. Gaige also gives 1980 as the year of the IM title (we have 1984). Our article agrees with. Unfortunately although chessgames is helpful, it isn't really reliable. Does anyone have any other sources that might help determine which information is correct?

I know that Gennadi Sosonko wrote something about him in his book "Russian Silhouettes", I remember he even wrote a whole chapter about Vitolins' life. If someone has this book he or she can look it up. --Wikinger22 (talk) 21:19, 14 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Sosonko agrees with the article as it stands - 15 June 1946 in Sigulda, a suburb of Riga - ref. Russian Silhouettes (enlarged ed.) p. 174. Brittle heaven (talk) 00:38, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
