Almost XY-wing, but I'll write it this way:

(3)r2c23 - (3=6)r2c5 - r1c5|(6=5)r2c7 - (5=3)r1c9 - (3=4)r1c5 - (4=3)r1c1 => -3 r2c2,r2c3 ; stte

W Wing: (4=3) r1c1 - r2c23 = r2c5 - (3=4) r3c4 => - 4 r1c5, r3c2; stte

Leren,

I'm sure I don't know all there is to know about W-Wings, but I thought you would've had to prove the 3 in r3c4. Obviously you have a nice solution, but I don't recognize it as a W-Wing the way I understand that technique.

Marty, this was a new one on me, too, but you can see that it's valid if you look at it a bit. The paired 3's in r2c23 strong link to the single 3 in r2c5 just as well as a single one would have, so it works just like a more conventional W-wing. Dang clever.

That's another one of my "senior moments." My comments don't make any sense. It's a perfectly normal W-Wing with a grouped strong link. I made my comments as if it were an M-Wing. Maybe I got confused because M is an upside-down W. :oops: :oops: :oops:

You're better than me! :) . I'd never heard of a grouped W-wing before.

I don't think "grouped" modifies the technique; we talk of grouped strong links in which two candidates act as one.
