Wilke,Hans_Peter (1655) – Kohlmeyer,D (1865), Lichtenberger Sommer, 2015. … Hans Peter Wilke: … Here is a summary of what AI found about Hans-Peter Wilke (Dr.): … Basic info: - He is German, born in 1930. - His FIDE ID is 12966240, federation Germany. - His latest listed standard rating is 1675, and he is listed as “inactive” by FIDE. - According to ChessBase, his best Elo was around 1696. … Chess activity: - There are recorded games of him in tournaments, e.g., in 2019 he played in Berlin at the “Lichtenberger Sommer 2019”, with a rating ~1523 in that particular event. - His game-database records: 44 games, with results: ~20.5% wins, ~68% losses, ~11.4% draws. - His openings: Listed on ChessBase as playing e.g. C11 (French Defence) with average Elo ~1949 (for that ECO), B23 (Sicilian, Closed) with average ~1755, etc. … Additional notes: - He does not appear to hold a FIDE title (such as FM, IM) according to the profile. - Because his rating is relatively modest and he is older (born 1930), he may be primarily a veteran club/tournament player rather than a professional grandmaster. - The database shows recent ratings fluctuations (e.g., 2018: ~1559, 2019: ~1512) and indicates limited recent activity.

Wilke,Hans_Peter (1655) – Bollenbach,Horst (1735), Lichtenberger Sommer, 2015. … Hans Peter Wilke: … Here is a summary of what AI found about Hans-Peter Wilke (Dr.): … Basic info: - He is German, born in 1930. - His FIDE ID is 12966240, federation Germany. - His latest listed standard rating is 1675, and he is listed as “inactive” by FIDE. - According to ChessBase, his best Elo was around 1696. … Chess activity: - There are recorded games of him in tournaments, e.g., in 2019 he played in Berlin at the “Lichtenberger Sommer 2019”, with a rating ~1523 in that particular event. - His game-database records: 44 games, with results: ~20.5% wins, ~68% losses, ~11.4% draws. - His openings: Listed on ChessBase as playing e.g. C11 (French Defence) with average Elo ~1949 (for that ECO), B23 (Sicilian, Closed) with average ~1755, etc. … Additional notes: - He does not appear to hold a FIDE title (such as FM, IM) according to the profile. - Because his rating is relatively modest and he is older (born 1930), he may be primarily a veteran club/tournament player rather than a professional grandmaster. - The database shows recent ratings fluctuations (e.g., 2018: ~1559, 2019: ~1512) and indicates limited recent activity.
