You happened to miss the 6s in box 9, which make a 68 pair and then cleanup is more approachable (1 gets pushed to the corner, remaining three cells form an obvious triple with the 5 in c8). It's pretty beside the point anyway, but nice to know it doesn't need quite as much basic trickery.
These puzzles cannot be solved with just basics (if we are talking about singles, locked candidates, and locked sets). I can say that with 100% confidence because it is easy to verify with a computer solver. In this case, how did you know whether 1 in box 6 was in r4c7 or r4c9? My assumption is you made a lucky mistake with penciling.
I'm asking Philip, which I know isn't a satisfying answer. He generally references the Enjoy Sudoku forums. A lot of these techniques were developed and coined in 2006-2008ish on that forum.

there are also BiLocal 2s in C3
so we can also place the 2 in R5C3
There was a bi-value 3 in row two, which distracted me so that I was searching for a bi-value 4 as well 🤦♂😆
FYI, the Sudokpad link goes to a different puzzle (Oranges).
Thanks, I've fixed it
@@Rangsk Thanks! I'm really enjoying this series.
I just solved this one with basics. 1s point in box 5 and 1 is placed in box 6. It was a fun puzzle, but I didn't find the wing all that useful.

So what resource(s)/site(s) are you using to read up on the particular technique?

I don't understand the concept of weak link strong link
Ich verwende nur Kandidat vorhanden, Kandidat nicht vorhanden, das ist glasklare Logik!
