[edit] red spade

about halfway through the article, a spade graphic is incorrectly colored red. i have no idea how that might have happened or how to change it. Niffweed17 06:42, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup

I think this page needs some major work. The lead in was somewhat nebulous as to who exactly has the void and what should be done, etc. I made a few changes, but really I'm not happy with that part. Also, under the Roman Blackwood 2H showed aces that matched (see http://homepage.mac.com/bridgeguys/Conventions/RomanBlackwood.html), which is not really mentioned in the article. There's also no mention of 1430 Eljamin 17:13, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

I don't think that it really needs major work. Unfortunately, this is one of our better articles (which doesn't imply that it's good but that most others are poor). As for the Roman Blackwood, the section tries to say that the basic idea is that 5♥ basically shows 2 aces, and then countless variations roll on; that is explained in the paragraph that follows (and it's sourced from BridgeGuys). One way or another, you're certainly welcome to improve it in any way you see fit.

Off-topic, but I'd like to turn your attention to WP:MoS#Avoid second-person pronouns. Duja► 08:17, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
