I'm not a chess expert but I'd say that a sportsperson of this type would at least have to compete internationally to be notable, for instance in the Chess Olympiad which started during his career. I don't see that this person has. Geschichte (talk) 11:00, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- As a member of the WikiProject Chess, I have written hundreds of pages (articles or stubs) on chess players, who are notable, for example as national chess champions (see, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Chess_national_championships, please). By the way, Egil Jacobsen won twice the Danish Chess Championship. So, I do not understand an objection presented by Geschichte. I hope, it is only a misunderstanding. -- Mibelz (talk) 17:11, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep Winning the Danish championship twice seems notable enough to me -- Boing! said Zebedee 00:26, 7 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep The guy was national champion twice. I'd say that's notable! Cls14 (talk) 11:40, 8 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep He played for Denmark in the 1928 Chess Olympiad held in the Netherlands. [1] Regards, SunCreator (talk) 19:28, 8 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. SunCreator's comment proves Geschichte wrong on at least one account, and I believe the subject of the article notable enough to keep in any case, regardless of Olympiad participation. GrandMattster 19:34, 8 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
