| Submission declined on 28 June 2025 by MCE89 (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Ferhat Karmil (born October 3, 1958, Ureki, Georgia) is a Turkish chess composer (formerly representing the USSR and Georgia). He was awarded the title of FIDE Master for chess composition in 2014.[1] and became an international judge in 2021.[2]
He has 22 points in the FIDE Album as of 2024.[1] Since 1986, Ferhat Karmil has published over 250 chess problems.[3] He has won or placed in numerous international composition tournaments.
Ferhat Karmil is best known for his work in the genre of moremove logical problems and orthodox miniatures. He has judged many international composing competitions and authored analytical articles on chess composition. He is also the organizer of annual thematic competitions such as the "MiniStar" tournament held on ChessStar.com, and is regarded as one of the world's leading specialists in orthodox three- and moremover miniatures.
In 2013, he unofficially represented Türkiye as a participant in the 56th World Congress of Chess Composition held in Batumi, Georgia.[4]
In 2018, Ferhat Karmil was appointed director of the composing tournament for the 43rd World Chess Olympiad.[5]
He won the 11th FIDE World Cup in Composing (2023)[6] and took silver in the 10th FIDE World Cup (2022)[7] in the section for moremove problems.
Ferhat Karmil is also the author of the neologism trickwork, introduced in 2025 to describe the intentional masking of borrowed ideas in chess composition under the guise of originality.[8] The term is also included in the Russian Wiktionary.
Biography
Ferhat Karmil's father was Rasim Karmil, and his mother was Fazilet Kakabadze (Сevdet-zade), daughter of the prominent Soviet Turkologist, linguist, and literary scholar Hikmet Cevdet-zade. The family was exiled to the Kyrgyz SSR, in the city of Kyzyl-Kiya, first in 1944 and again in 1960.
In 1966, Ferhat Karmil began his education at Secondary School No. 3 named after Anton Chekhov. In 1967, the family returned to Georgia, where he continued his studies at Secondary School No. 8 named after Vissarion Belinsky in Batumi.
After graduating from school in 1976, Ferhat enrolled at the Georgian Polytechnic Institute, where he studied "Technologies of machine tool and instrument engineering."[9]
From 1983 to 1985, he served in the Armed Forces of the USSR in a tank regiment stationed in Vladimir, Russia.
He has been writing rubaiyat poetry since 2009.[10]
Creative Path
Ferhat Karmil became interested in chess at an early age, but began working on chess composition much later.[11] His first compositions were published in the Riga magazine "Chess" in 1986.[12]
At the beginning of his chess career, he composed exclusively miniature chess problems. Significant success was achieved after the mid-1990s.
One of Ferhat Karmil's notable achievements in chess composition is the identification of a special class of problems and studies called "statists" — compositions based mainly on immobile (static) pieces that usually remain so during the solution. He also provided definitions and detailed systematization of this class.[13]
