Hindi piece designations
Hindi is written in Devanagari, so the revert by Beeshoney on 1 Aug 2010 - only a minute after the previous contribution - is nonsensical. It looks like a knee-jerk reaction, given that so many other pieces are designated in their native scripts, and the new Hindi designations exactly match the Telugu names in format. "Beeshoney" should explain why the older version is more appropriate, otherwise I am forced to assume the worst.76.79.62.98 (talk) 23:13, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Old talk
Please, someone who does these things well come and make sure i handled the include/noinclude nonsense correctly. Also, PLEASE EDIT/ADD TO THIS LIST if you can. Thanks!--Ioshus (talk) 16:07, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Queen
While Rainha is indeed a widespread Portuguese language name for the Queen, it has fallen out of favor; the prefered translation is Dama. I will make the correction right now. Luis Dantas 07:40, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

Duplicated data in Wiktionary
There is also a table of these words maintained separately in Wiktionary. Is there any possibility of merging data? The Wiktionary version does not have abbreviations. Wiktionary table Andrewmp (talk) 04:25, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

More terms
Shouldn't more chess terms be included here? Castling, Stale mate, etc.? ~ RayLast  « Talk! » 16:44, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Should the names of the chess pieces in the first sentence be in lower case? According to WikiProject_Chess "The names of pieces (king, queen, rook, etc.) are not capitalized (except when the first word of a sentence)."

Meanings in English
Why are not the meanings of the names in various languages given? The meanings also vary widely and the table will be more interesting with the meanings in English. Gantuya eng (talk) 07:27, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
