I've marked Hook and ladder (chess) for proposed deletion. I think you did an excellent job on the article, but the term is not standard and I believe it qualifies as a neologism for reasons I explained at Talk:Hook and ladder (chess). The normal evaluation period is 5 days, and if my judgement is incorrect it is likely that someone will contest the prod notice. I don't want this to discourage you from contributing to chess articles, and in fact I think that the substance of your work would make an excellent addition to the sacrifice (chess) article, using the standard deflection sacrifice terminology. I don't think deflection sacrifices are mentioned there at all and they should be. Quale 20:55, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
And good work usually finds a good niche to go into. :-) The article has been merged with sacrifice (chess) which was lacking a good example of a deflection sacrifice. Thanks to Quale for pointing out the problem and suggesting a an article to use the material in, and thank you for submitting the content! Sjakkalle (Check!) 06:42, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
