Dear Chess and Beyond,

We're delighted to see that several pages on your website,
http://www.chessandbeyond.com/ use content from Wikipedia
(http://www.wikipedia.org/), the free encyclopedia. This
is just the sort of application that we at Wikipedia wish
to promote.

However, we'd like to point out that to use content from
Wikipedia you should include a link back to the source
Wikipedia articles (
http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endgame,
http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess%20strategy%20and%20tactics,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rules%20of%20chess,
http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic%20chess%20notation,
http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_(chess)
http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_(chess)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rook_(chess)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bishop_(chess)
http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knight_(chess)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pawn_(chess)),
as we've suggested on our copyrights page
(http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Copyrights). Additionally,
you should also include a GFDL notice. One way of doing this would be to
add the text "This article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation
License, which means that you can copy and modify it as long as the
entire work (including additions) remains under this license", and
provide a link to http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html. 

Thanks for your assistance,
