Rabbits
Some stuff this page says about rabbits seems quite outdated. In particular, "It cannot be stressed enough that one should normally control vital squares first (elephant on d6 and strong piece on b6 or c7) before threatening material or attempting to advance rabbits on the wing." Isn't it common to advance rabbits to help, say, a camel get to b6? I guess it's still worthwhile to explain how to avoid a position like the one Gold is in in Diagram 3, but the explanation should probably be different.
