-Although the next two templates look like 6th row templates with two stones, note that the 6th row stone plays no role in connecting the template to the edge. It has simply been added to show one possibility for how the 5th row red stone may be connected up. We regard these as one-stone 5th row templates.
+Although the next two templates take up 6 rows, they are considered 5th row templates because the stone to be connected is on the 5th row.

-This template is called L-5a and L-5b in [http://www.mseymour.ca/hex_book/hexstrat9.html Seymour's book], depending on whether Red wants to connect stone A or B to the edge. The template guarantees that Red can connect, at Red's choice, either stone A or stone B to the edge. However, unlike [[Edge_template_IV2l|template IV-2l]], Red is not guaranteed to be able to connect them both.
