Die Schwalbe 12/2013
MRi: "Nach dem ersten, naturgemäs schlaglosen Zug muss Weiß im Rest der Partie permanent schlagen. Dass sich gleich drei weiße Steine aktiv an dieser Fresserei beteiligen, kommt ebenso überraschend wie der Schnoebelen-Läufer auf h8, den man beim bloßen Blick auf die Endstellung wohl kaum erwartet hätte. Netter (Computer?!)-Fund im Bereich der At-Home-BPs."
HG: Siehe Kommentar zu 15609; hier mit Schnoebelen-Läufer, sK-Rückhehr und sD-Opferzug."
SBa zu 15069 und 15611: "Das dürften die ersten orthodoxen Doppelhomebase it Schnoebelenumwandungen sein. 156909 ist inbesondere weben des genialen Tempozugs Ke7, der die eigentliche Begründung der Umwandlung liefert, viel besser, die andere errinerte eher an Massakerbeweispartien, Nichesdestotrotz will das erstmal konstruiert sein.
A.Buchanan: @Mario: no computer: found by hand over the course of several evenings on a business trip to Mumbai, but I take the suspicion as a compliment! :D (2021-07-18)

A.Buchanan: I just realized I chose the dedications of these two problems the right way round luckily: L for Linß and S for Schnoebelen :D (2019-01-12)

See P1316696 and P1359492
And see P1375440 for a fairy version
Mario Richter: Henrik wrote: "The term Schnoebelen theme first was used in proof games".

Even if it's like fighting against windmills, "Schnoebelen promotions" were *NOT* first used in proof games, but in orthodox retros. Ceriani invented the theme in 1948, maybe even before Philippe was born!
See my post in the Retros Mailig List:

Henrik Juel: missing Keyword: Schnoebelen theme (2019-01-12, hidden)
Henrik Juel: Now I see that this Keyword in general help play is restricted to immediate capture after promotion
Why this restriction? (2019-01-12, hidden)
Alfred Pfeiffer: There is not such restriction. The immediate capture of the promoted piece is a option, not a duty. (2019-01-12, hidden)
A.Buchanan: Yes the documentation is misleading in all 3 languages - thanks for pointing out - I will fix it. (2019-01-12, hidden)
Henrik Juel: I agree with your interpretation, Alfred
The term Schnoebelen theme first was used in proof games, where (paradoxically) a promotion happened, but the promoted man never moved and was captured on the promotion square; an immediate capture was not required
Still the PDB definition includes
'The theme can be naturally extended to help problems, where a pawn is captured immediately it has promoted.'
I suggest deleting the sentence after the comma (2019-01-12, hidden)
A.Buchanan: Yes that's simplest, Henrik: I have done so. Maybe we can hide all this dialogue? (2019-01-12, hidden)
Henrik Juel: Yes, Andrew, please hide all comments
(my answer to Alfred was sent before yours appeared) (2019-01-12, hidden) more ...

Added 1 Dummy to P1359493, and changed the dedicatee. My luck with this little series continues to hold: the dedicatee's surname begins with a D!
James Malcom: Andrew, I just found this today-I thank you very much, but perhaps it holds no more, for my true name is known now! (2020-10-28)
