Name the 28 most famous chess players of all time – those with a Wikipedia article in at least 50 languages (as of May 2024). The checks indicate whether they were world champion at some point, in parentheses if the title was disputed.
Thanks. As I use objective criteria, I could only extend the quiz, but I have decided that 28 is more than enough for casual chess fans. I'm not entirely happy with the selection (not even Nepo makes the cut), but I can't change the order of the list without it becoming my personal opinion.
