I'm lightly torn on whether to include this information on the page too; it's not the main subject of the page but it's interesting and it'd be a shame to have it hidden away in a comment.

I was wrestling with this problem too, when adding checkmating paragraphs for other minors in the Piececlopedia. For majors it is easy, and you can simply say "this piece can force checkmate...". But for minors it is really useful information with which other minors it has to be paired to be able to force checkmate, and when it can not. But the paragraph tends to get long, and repetitive between pages, when you have to explain the details every time.

Perhaps the part of the explanation that applies to many pieces should be made on the Applet page itself. I could add paragraphs there to say something like "The XXX can switch its attack from one square to a square orthogonally separated by two steps, which allows it to checkmate in combination with almost any piece that can roam the entire board", and similar things for semi-potent and forking pieces, which initially are hidden, and which could be opened by a request in the query string when they apply, the XXX automatically replaced by the piece name.

[Edit] I have now done this, and took the liberty to switch on the explanations for semi-potent and forking through the URL in the Steward page.
