Comments/Ratings for a Single Item
Thanks for the reminder, this has long been on a list of things to do when I have the time.
The diagram designer changed behavior around movement markers after Charles had made all of these, breaking them. I need to go through with a regex replacement. Doing that through the site's forms would take a while; doing it through the database would be faster, but then revision history wouldn't be updated, so I'd want to more carefully check that the changes worked and didn't break something else.

OK, this page is done; please let me know if anything remains to fix here.
(There were two diagrams here too in which a piece name started with a period and the surrounding brackets had been URL-encoded, which made the first pass of the regex replacement convert too much. It was easy enough to spot and fix. I can't just begin the process by converting the URL-encoded %7B
and %7D
back to brackets, because then the main regex will stop too soon. Maybe I can adjust the main regex to exclude matches to %7B.
?)
There's one main thing left to fix, though it's probably Charles' error: The diagram for the Primate (WB
, top right in the last block of diagrams) has a spurious sideways rook move, of a kind which isn't introduced until Alternative Fronts. Idk whether we consider that within the editors' remit though, esp. with Charles gone
Incidentally, the thing with the mathematical expressions (which you note here and also affects this page's degree signs ⟨°⟩) is the same problem as affected this page, among many others across the site. In principle worth fixing though it may be more difficult to do thoroughly, especially if people have edited affected pages in the interim
