Hi Sportsfan77777, I'm happy to review this. Thanks for bringing this here at GAN. Edwininlondon (talk) 10:10, 2 June 2022 (UTC)


#### Prose
Prose meets the criteria. I made a few minor edits, which I assume are ok, but please revert if not. My only comments:

Early on, she signed to stream for Chess.com  --> this is a bit vague and unclear. When is this?
Specified "early April". Sportsfan77777 (talk) 16:01, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
Belenkaya is a Master of Sports of Russia --> this is floating a bit. Better to make it part of the previous paragraph, I think
Done. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 16:01, 7 June 2022 (UTC)


#### Sources
Her current rating of 2264 is in the infobox but is not sourced
It's covered by the external link (which is a standard format). Sportsfan77777 (talk) 16:01, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
Vadimovna is not sourced. I would recommend adding it to her name in the opening of "Early life and background"
Added. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 16:01, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
language tag is missing for ref 1 and 26; check others
Added these, and a bunch of others. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 16:01, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
Spotchecks: 1 2 3 4 5 46 48 58 ok
47 is ok except for I could not verify "Belenkaya was the 66th seed out of 103 competitors"
I couldn't find a better source. The seeding pairs the highest seed with the lowest seed, second-highest with second-lowest, etc. like typical brackets in sports. The seeds for the top half are given. Her match was so close to the middle match (64 vs. 65) that it's straightforward to count from there. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 16:01, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
74 is her own website. Ref 46 verifies the fact and is a better source.
Replaced. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 16:01, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
Otherwise all looks good for reliability and formatting.


#### Images
All good.
That's all I have. Edwininlondon (talk) 11:25, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
@Sportsfan77777: Just pinging you in case you missed I finished my review. Edwininlondon (talk) 07:55, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for the review, Edwininlondon! I replied above. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 16:01, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
All looks good. I believe all criteria have been met. Promoting. Nice work! Edwininlondon (talk) 20:18, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

Belenkaya was reprimanded by the FIDE Ethics Commission, which found Respondents 1 thru 15 guilty of making "reckless and unjustified accusations of cheating," as stated on pages 31-32 of the cited source (Belenkaya is Respondent no. 5 as stated on page 5). The FIDE Ethics Commission imposed a sanction on Belenkaya in the form of a "reprimand (severe expression of disapproval and warning of consequences if conduct is repeated)" as stated on page 32 of the cited source.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chessxid (talk • contribs) 22:19, 8 September 2023 (UTC) 

Ironically, Dina is the one who was recoded cheating, in a widely disseminated video.
