What is the source for these positions? For board sizes <= 6x6 the queenbee page has proved theorems by brute force. For 7x7 what is the source? and for 10x10 is the wiki asserting that the moves with colours are provable wins for those colours? It's not clear to me whether these assertions are rigorously proved, or just "what the experts think".

http://www.ru.is/faculty/yngvi/pdf/HaywardBJKPR05.pdf is a reference for 7x7.

http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/~queenbee/openings.html is a reference for <= 6x6.

In my opinion these should be included in the article. I am still unclear about what precisely is being asserted for 10x10.

I agree with Wcccanard that some references must be given. The article is obscure in a) references, b) what is really asserted. --Gregorio 19:56, 4 January 2009 (CET)

I don't understand the diagram, and which sides of the rhombus are blue or red. --Almo 11:46, 31 Aug 2012 (CET)
