It could be noted that Capablanca noticed white could threaten mate in one move, using the knight/rook combo piece (the chancellor) and then changed the opening positions of the game to fix this oversight.

Maybe make a note of the final version of the game as you do on other pages, so no one reading only a single page is mislead.
