Visual Identification of New Wormholes

Before Hyperion, I was quite comfortable using a combination of the Show Info window and the visual graphic of the wormhole to easily tell what class wormhole a wormhole will lead to.

This old (now outdated) page was useful in learning the differences:
http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Visually_Identifying_Wormholes

I was wondering if anyone came up with another guide that is similar for these new wormhole effects?

I have a hard time telling the difference from some of the new holes without actually flying through the hole and figuring it out from the J-Code. I remember I was in a C4 and scanned down a new hole, would have bet money that it was a C3, ended up being a C2. I was very frustrated.

Some holes you can logic out, using a combination of the allowed ship size and the show info blurb, but some don't narrow down the options to one choice.

Allows very large ships, Dangerous parts of space = has to be C5.

Allows large ships, Unknown parts of space = might be C2 or C3 (this is the kind of difference I want to get better at recognizing)

Thanks in advance for any help.

Thanks! That will definitely be put to good use.
