 * Oppose, should remain as it is, because he was not American, he only authored his English-language books under the simplified name Vukovic.--Ioannes Pragensis 10:54, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
 * But that is the major factor influencing the way he is best known in English, which is the relevant factor under Naming conventions. Gene Nygaard 14:47, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
 * and, I know it's an old thread but it appears that all English language editions of his books used Vladimir Vuković. If there were any that used Vukovic they are both out of print and not showing up no sites such as Abebooks.


 * For "Art of Attack in Chess" there's:
 * Pergamon Press (1965) uses Vuković at least in editions since 1974. I can't find a cover image for an older copy. http://www.amazon.com/dp/0080111963 shows a cover.
 * Everyman Chess (formerly known as Cadogan Chess) http://www.amazon.com/dp/1857444000/ uses Vuković. All of the Cadogan editions going back the first edition in 1993 use Vuković.
 * The Vladimir Vuković WP article mentions an "Oxford-London 1963" edition though links to http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1857444000/ which is an Everyman edition. Pergamon Press was started in London and moved to Oxford. I'm wondering if "Oxford-London 1963" is a mangled form of Pergamon Press further mangled as it seems Pergamon's first printing was in 1965.


 * Similarly, it appears the English language editions of "The Chess Sacrifice" also use Vuković. this link shows two Abebook seller listings with covers. One is G. Bell and Sons, Ltd., London (1968) and the other is David McKay Co, New York (1968) with both covers showing Vuković. The later Ishi Press, United States, 2009 reprint also uses Vuković. --Marc Kupper&#124;talk 06:30, 5 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Update and correction. I found that the Cadogan 1993 trade paperback edition of Art of Attack in Chess has "V. Vukovic" on the front cover and uses an initial "The" in the title (The Art of Attack in Chess). Cadogan reprinted in 1995 but I was not able to find a reliable cover image for that edition and so don't know how the author name was formatted. Usually when a publisher says "reprinted" they have not made any changes from the earlier edition. We'll assume the 1995 edition looks exactly like the 1993 version.


 * In 1998 Cadogan introduced the John Nunn version. Again it's not clear which author name they used on the front cover. I have the 2000 reprint which uses Art of Attack in Chess without the initial "The" and by Vladimir Vuković on the front cover and The Art of Attack in Chess by Vladimir Vuković on the title page. I'll assume the 1998 revised edition and its 1999 reprint both used Vladimir Vuković.


 * Something else to keep in mind is that we should also be checking the title page. Catalog listings in libraries generally use what's stated on the title page supplemented by what's available on the title verso or copyright page. That can result in confusion on if the title is Art of Attack in Chess which is on the covers of the current in-print edition or The Art of Attack in Chess which is on the title page of the current in-print edition.  --Marc Kupper&#124;talk 20:23, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
