• The article is new enough and long enough but I think the hook (and the text in the article that backs it up) are seriously misleading. The lead states that on tiebreak he was tenth in this particular championship. The "first" claim, later in the article, is sourced to an article which gives his performance partway through the tournament, after 7 of 11 rounds. This needs to be fixed, and a better hook found, before it can be promoted. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:50, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

• I ce the sentence with the 7 of 11 rounds issue. Here's ALT1: ... that Belarusian chess Grandmaster Sergei Azarov (pictured) is ranked third in his country? --Rosiestep (talk) 17:25, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

• Ok, good to go with ALT1. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:15, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
