Biography issue[edit]

There seems to be a factual inaccuracy.

"In 1992, Ding became a professional. He advanced a rank every year until 2001, where he reached his current rank, 8 dan". If he became a 1-dan pro in 1992, and was promoted every year thereafter, he would have reached 8-dan in 1999, not 2001.
