 * I'm puzzled. Since when did a reference to the town's chess club (as per below) constitute an inappropriate addition? Watford Chess Club plays in the 4 Nations Chess League and is particularly noted for its large junior membership Roger5719 (talk) 17:37, 19 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Your question seems to suggest that you've edited here before with the expectation that chess clubs be included in articles on towns and cities. If not, let's get to the problems. You've offered no third party sources to confirm the club's notability, only WP:PRIMARY links. We're not a bulletin board for listing various non notable local organizations. You've ignored edit summaries that attempted to summarize this, and are instead edit warring--WP:3RR--to re-add the content. Since your only edits thus far have been to promote this, an undisclosed WP:COI is suggested, and conflict of interest must be divulged. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:0:0:0:CC3A (talk) 20:50, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
 * To answer your first point, I haven't edited here before. Yes, there's an arguable conflict of interest in as much as I am a member of Watford Chess Club but my addition is purely factual - the club plays in Division 3 East of the national chess league (verifiable from the league site, https://www.4ncl.co.uk/) which approximates to the English football's Championship or perhaps League One.  Obvious reference source is the club's own website https://watfordchessclub.org/ or alternatively the 4NCL site mentioned above and I'm very happy to do this aIthough, as a newbie, I've yet to work out how to do it.
