Links from this kind of site could be useful. I don't know if there are any RHP references on the link provided.

Many of these are just links, but they all share the factor of not being RedHotPawn sites.

Because winning rather than losing in context is defined by respecting and accepting the authority of site policy and the published ground rules of participation. That's why.
It's their game. If we want in, we have to play by their rules.

Update 30 Sept 2015: the latest re-write incorporating further references (as listed above) has also been rejected. The reason given is: "This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability—" Sorry, Russ, I can't make RHP more "notable". Even the NYT reference wasn't convincing enough.
At least we are now listed there:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_venue#Venues_.28who_and_where_to_play.29
Edit: I was alerted that the link won't work (it does for me). What should work is:
