Error in Contributed Diagram
Eric Ferguson · Aug. 8, 2013, 9:52 p.m.
The diagram shows Turn L for 1st couple on [25-26], that should be 1/2 turn l.
Nowhere does it say who made and uploaded this diagram, so I see no way of requesting the author to correct it. I propose that in future the website should record the information on diagram authors, and make that visible onsite, just as for Keith Rose’s diagrams.
