I do not see that person as notable enough to be in an encyclopedia. The sources cited seem to be local newspapers covering the life of the town, not mainstream media. If I understand correctly it is just a person who organises chess events in her neighbourhood. SyG (talk) 08:00, 13 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete in accordance with WP:BIO stipulations specifying coverage in third party, reliable, sources. The article is presently completely unsourced and unverifiable. Coldmachine Talk 08:26, 13 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge, there are multiple, non-trivial mentions of Hoffman in reliable sources, but they are all in the context of 9 Queens. Suggest this information is merged into that article. Somno (talk) 10:37, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Merge unless we find more sources writing about Hoffman primarily. The 9 Queens article is not overly long, there is room. :-) --GRuban (talk) 20:42, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
