message: I am inclined to think that this section doesn't belong in the article. The article is about the publication; the circumstances of its editor-in-chief's death, while undoubtedly tragic, are not really relevant, in my opinion. The articles on Basic Chess Endings, Modern Chess Openings and so forth don't explain how the various editors died. Mr. Krnić may well warrant a separate article; this information would fit much more comfortably there. Krakatoa (talk) 04:15, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

text: Quoting from the source "A member of the Editorial Board since 1971, Mr. Krnić was Chess Informant's Editor-in-chief from 1996, and the Director from 2001 ".  Since it started in 1966, he wasn't a founder, but as a long-time editor-in-chief and director of such an important publication, I think he probably merits his own article.  I don't think the "untimely death" section belongs in this article. his FIDE info Bubba73 (You talkin' to me?), 18:56, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Tragic Death of Editor-in-Chief 

message: I removed the section in question.  I don't think it needs to be in an article about Informat.  It could go in an article about the person.
As the victim of a hit-and-run accident caused by a reckless motorcycle driver, Chess Informant Editor-in-chief Zdenko Krnić sustained serious injuries and head trauma on Friday night, July 16, 2010 when he was coming home from work. He died at the Emergency Center hospital in Belgrade on Friday, July 23, 2010, without regaining consciousness. Mr. Krnić was 62, and a Belgrade resident.
A member of the Editorial Board since 1971, Mr. Krnić was Chess Informant's Editor-in-chief from 1996, and the Director from 2001 until his untimely death. Under Mr. Krnić's stewardship Chess Informant's publications maintained their trademark quality, recognizable by chess players all over the world. Zdenko Krnić had many friends among the greatest players of our time, and was a loved and respected member of the global chess community. During his brief chessplaying career Mr. Krnić became an International Master and the Yugoslav vice champion in Skender-Vakuf, 1980.
Mr. Krnić is survived by his wife Zdenka and two sons, Bojan and Goran.http://www.sahovski.com/
