Contested deletion[edit]

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because this is another nonsensical call, a number of claims of notability, including being a world champion! --PatGallacher (talk) 19:12, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion[edit]

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because winning a world youth championship twice is surely an assertion of notability. --PatGallacher (talk) 20:41, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion[edit]

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because subject is a talented chess player who achieved a strong result at age 14 and is likely to go on to further things. Credible chess news source (chessbase.com) was cited. MaxBrowne (talk) 21:10, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Beats Carlsen at age 12[edit]

According to this source, which includes a video of Vaishali herself corroborating the facts, she beat Magnus Carlsen when she was 12 in a simul that he held while visiting Chennai. I would include this in the article, but would like some other opinions on the acceptability of the source. Thanks, Crum375 (talk) 20:55, 16 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Found a better source and added it to the article. Crum375 (talk) 22:43, 16 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
