Sad news, Sveshnikov was a influential thinker, with one of the major chess-openings bearing his name.
I saw him play in his hometown Chelyabinsk in 1991, and his board was surrounded by spectators.
RIP.

It is always nice to be followed by a stand-up good guy (and an ex-world champion to boot). 😃 @Ponomariov

An excellent article! – at Barnet, London
Chess amid Covid-19: The stories no one tells
Immensely thought-provoking and wide-ranging article from Hammer’s diversity Officer, covering cheating, accessibility, and many questions for players, organisers, and anyone tempted to bend the rules.

I want to recommend a really well written and thoughtful chess blog that I enjoy: thechessmind.net/ Let me know what you think.
This week's Self-Isolating Pawns team battle: Can @EdinburghChess be knocked off their throne? @KingsHeadchess, @ChessHackney, Athenaeum and @hammer_chess will have a bash. I heard @NBristolChess might be interested in joining (nudge). Saturday at 8pm lichess.org/tournament/IIY4O…
Self-Isolating Pawns team battle to start in just under 24 hours: 8pm UK time on Saturday. 2 hours of 5 0 in a friendly atmosphere. All welcome. Edinburgh Chess Club should be feeling over-confident by now and ripe for a tonking: lichess.org/tournament/O0YoJ…
