Should we place Hyatt's article in the Wikipedia Category:Chess theoreticians?

No. I am not aware of him or his creations making any discoveries in opening theory. Perhaps Larry Kaufman or some of Rybka's book authors, though...

Well, Hyatt did copy the entire MCO opening book into the Crafty opening book much to the shock of the late GM Larry Evans.

If Crafty enters the WCCC with copyrighted material in the Crafty opening books is that not against the WCCC rules on original? :P

Cordially,
