 Ksawery Tartakower - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ksawery Tartakower (generally known as Saviely or Savielly in English, less often Xavier Tartacover or Xavier Tartakover; 1887–1956) was a leading Polish and French chess Grandmaster.
Although Tartakower did not even speak the Polish language, after Poland regained its independence in 1918 he accepted Polish citizenship and became one of the most prominent honorary ambassadors of Poland abroad.
Tartakower is far and away the most cultured and the wittiest of all the chess masters I have ever met.

I've moved this to Savielly Tartakower from Ksawery Tartakower; I'm guessing he is known as Ksawery in Poland, but in English-lanuage contexts I've never seen him called that; it's always been Savielly or Saviely.
If Ksawery was his birth name which got changed later, it's probably worth mentioning that specifically in the article (I don't know myself if it was or wasn't, so I've just left it as an "also known as").
Of course, if he is known as "Ksawery" in Poland, then the Polish version of the article should be at "Ksawery Tartakower" (as indeed it is), but to have the English version of the article there is going to cause confusion, because few people who are primarily English-speakers will recognise that as his first name.
