Method: curated weekly feed current through 2026-09-05. Discovery used 24 varied web searches across 569 unique pages and extracted 950 raw mentions, then narrowed to authoritative and specialist sources and deduplicated events, leaving a qualified pool of 22 nuclear, 11 Afro House and 155 chess items; the top 8 per community by editorial rank appear here (24 rows). Dates shown are publication dates; many sources state event dates only in prose, so unnormalised event dates are left blank. Afro House releases are listening picks from a recent OkayAfrica roundup and were not necessarily first released on the article's publication date.
