Not notable. None of the "facts" alleged in the article make for any notability. They say he beat Staunton with a pawn and two move odds. I say, Big deal. Fodder for speedy deletion if any. Pure tripe. Thank you. OGBranniff (talk) 06:09, 9 March 2013 (UTC) Nomination withdrawn per User:Sasata's sources. Thank you. OGBranniff (talk) 19:41, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

• Keep There's a fairly substantial obit of him in [http://books.google.com/books?id=0ygBAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA141 British Chess Magazine (1882)] that could be used to flesh out this article. Sasata (talk) 22:38, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

:*Also, an article about him by Tim Harding in ChessCafe ([http://www.chesscafe.com/text/kibitz186.pdf "The double life of Adolphus Zytogorski"]), and entry in Gaige's Chess Personalia, Boase's Modern English Biography, and a [http://www.astercity.net/~vistula/zytogoreng.htm full article] about him by Tomasz Lissowski in Quarterly for Chess History. There's more sources available; some are harder to find because his name has been spelled incorrectly by various authors. Sasata (talk) 13:59, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

• Comment. What makes chess players notable? I have to say that even as an inclusionist I am not seeing any sources (checked Google Books and the regular web). Nothing in Polish at least that has been digitized helps to even verify his existence. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:04, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
• Comment. And with that, my friends, it shows the article subject is not even WP:V, verifiable, much less notable. Let's then just speedily delete this guy off the wiki! Zap, failing WP:V. Out! OGBranniff (talk) 07:09, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
• Keep per Sasata. Toccata quarta (talk) 04:50, 12 March 2013 (UTC)
• Keep per Sasata's sources. In ictu oculi (talk) 06:55, 12 March 2013 (UTC)
• Weak keep, per Sasata's new sources. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:45, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
• Keep. Nominator switching to keep and withdrawing nomination. OGBranniff (talk) 19:41, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
