| Data notes: |
All 704 original move sequences preserved. Corrected two inconsistent Result tags (Fardet–Le Roux R2.7 to 0-1; Ruhlmann–Hernandez R8.8 to 1-0) using both FFE sheets and the final individual grid. Corrected swapped player/colour attribution in R2.8: Dieuleveut was White and won against Auvray; moves and result 1-0 retained. Metz independently confirms the 0-5 loss in round 2. No administrative match-score adjustments are needed. Lucie Chen, unused, has the official register’s estimated national Elo 1009 (E), not a verified FIDE rating. All other 250 players are identified in the June FIDE list. |

| All preliminary match points and decisive-board scores are carried into finals. The official awards page misspells Korobov as KOROV. The FFE individual grid records Movsesian–Bellahcene R11 as a draw, giving both 8 points; the match sheet, original PGN, contemporary account and official awards support 1-0 and totals 8.5/11 for Movsesian and 7.5/10 for Bellahcene. The 1-0 sporting result is retained. The organizer site also retains an obsolete 2021 date in its generic subtitle; the edition dates are 9–19 June 2022. |
