Sounds plausible. I assume

C46 Three Knights Game including Halloween Gambit

from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chess_openings#C20%E2%80%93C99 is a mistake?

That's one of the sites I've been studying from and it certainly isn't perfect, lol. It's better than the ECO code index listed at https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Chess_Opening_Theory/ECO_volume_A (BCDE), though. I'd be curious to see how all these sites compare to the actual printed volumes of the Encyclopaedia of Chess Openings (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encyclopaedia_of_Chess_Openings).

Anyway fwiw, my main source is the scid.eco file from http://scid.sourceforge.net/. It seems to be the most dependable, imo.

Ok, thanks. Fixed.

I've noticed lichess isn't updated yet... roughly how long does it take for changes like this to be implemented?

Thanks for the reminder. Usually we bundle patches like this with bigger changes before releasing, so it depends. I updated the opening explorer just now. For other parts of the site it can still take a while.
