Talk:Dawid Janowski

Blind Swine
V. Vukovic claims, "The pair of Rooks which 'grunt out check' on the seventh rank but cannot get sight of mate were once nicknamed blind swine by Janowski." I'd like to find a reference as to when and where Janowski may have said this. JStripes 13:19, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Reuben Fine
Where did Reuben Fine write all these opinions concerning Janowski? He was 12 years old when Janowski died! How could he remember "Janowski as a player of considerable talent"? JCSantos (talk) 15:22, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

Nationality
Sources seem to differ on his nationality; this one calls him a "French chess player"; this "a leading Polish chess master and subsequent French citizen". 331dot (talk) 23:20, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

And for more complication while his family was Polish he was born in the Russian Empire in what we now call Belarus. 331dot (talk) 23:23, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
