Is Jack Mizzi a friend, family member, or associate of yours in any way? If so, you are required to disclose this. It isn't a problem to be an editor with a conflict of interest, but it does make it difficult to write in a neutral fashion as required by WP:NPOV policy if you are close to the subject. Draft:Jack Mizzi is definitely non-neutral, containing several instances of unsubstantiated puffery. The only venue we have for a person with a conflict of interest to edit an article is draft space, so it's good that you're developing the article there. ~Anachronist (talk) 21:35, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Draft:Jack Mizzi, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you.

A tag has been placed on David Cilia Vincenti requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to Maltese Chess Championship. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been removed. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 11:23, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
Hello. I started a discussion of your draft at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Chess#Draft (not mine) would benefit from review. There seems to be a desire for coverage of Jack Mizzi from outside of Malta. If such coverage exists, then include it. ~Anachronist (talk) 21:01, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
I added some external links. Perhaps I can also summarise here. The most important tournament was the European Small Nations (ESNA) championship. Organised by the European Chess Union, this tournament was so important that it was singled out for participation in the World Cycle Championships. I mentioned https://en.chessbase.com/post/lance-henderson-wins-european-small-nations-2022 (reference 49) which is a well respected German chess journal. More importantly I highlighted that the reason why Jack would become a Candidate Master is because of his performance of 5.5/9. This kicked in a special (rarely used) mechanism whereby he was awarded the title. I listed official FIDE regulations that specify this rule, citing different official sources.
The World Amateur tournament was important enough that the FIDE president attended personally to the event. https://chessmalta.com/dvorkovich-visits-malta/. Frankly I cannot understand how someone can decide to say that a tournament is not important without researching. I think however that this link is not necessary in the article because everyone within the chess community knows that the World Amateur Chess Tournament is a FIDE tournament. Perhaps not everyone knows that the FIDE president inaugurated it. In any case, this tournament was notable for Jack because this was the second criteria for him to obtain the candidate master title. The first and most important criteria was the 5.5/9 obtained in the European Small Nations. I explained at great length how this mechanism works. ATM622 (talk) 23:53, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
I wish to refer to https://lb.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:ATM622/Fred_Berend. This is the Luxembourgean version of Wikipedia. What is the correct way to reference? ATM622 (talk) 20:25, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
Recently Mizzi has been awarded the Blitz National Champion title and the Rapid National Champion title. Note that these were the Malta National Championships and not Junior Championships. ATM622 (talk) 23:43, 8 December 2022 (UTC)

Signed, Pichemist ( Contribs | Talk ) 19:20, 25 December 2022 (UTC)An article you recently created, Jack Mizzi, is not suitable as written to remain published. It appears there is a WP:UPE or WP:COI conflict. Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, and have addressed the UPE/COI issue, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. As per WP policy, please do not move into mainspace yourself. Onel5969 TT me 13:02, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
