Wrong info[edit]

Some statements should be corrected here. At first, Antoshin never won USSR Correspondence Championship 1960. Did he play any significant not-over-the-board tournament at all? And then, he was definitely not a part of Soviet team at Student Olympiads 1964 and 1965. Olimpbase is misleading at this point. Dsds55 (talk) 14:11, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm. I don't know the truth, but BM Kazic (1974) International Championship Chess says of the 11th Student Olympiad, Cracow 1964: "The well-prepared Soviet team, with Antoshin and Kapengut as newcomers, regained the title." Perhaps there's another Antoshin? Quale (talk) 05:23, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
According to the tournament report from Olympiad 1964 by V. Bagirov (Chess in the USSR, 64/10, p. 3) the Soviet team included R. Pelts (Odessa), G. Khodos (Rostov), V. Savon (Kharkov), E. Mnatsakanian (Erevan), G. Anoshin (Novosibirsk) and A. Kapengut (Minsk). Next year Pelts was out and B. Shipov in. Here is online source translated from russian (at the end).Dsds55 (talk) 10:39, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. That suggests that some English sources may have confused "Antoshin" and "Anoshin". Otherwise the Kazic language is a little odd, as V. Antoshin would not have been a "newcomer" to the Student Olympiad in 1964. That might be an appropriate description for G. Anoshin, however. Quale (talk) 05:14, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
