In the beginning of the article it states: "Combinations, in contrast to the norm, are sufficiently forcing that one can calculate exactly how advantage will be achieved against any defense." Shouldn't there be a "much" before "advantage"? I believe the original writer meant to state they can calculate the quantity of advantage that will be gained, and not the manner in which it will be gained. They might not have noticed the omission of the word. Ericobnn ( talk) 00:20, 14 November 2020 (UTC)

Also, the fork mentioned is not a royal fork as it is only the king and queen involved in the fork by the knight - to be a royal fork a rook must be forked at the same time as the queen and king —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.46.172.35 ( talk) 00:51, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
