Brown (ref. \cite{BHKP}) for the \emph{homotopy double groupoid of a Hausdorff space}. The key changes here involve replacing the regular homotopy equivalence relation from the cited ref. with the \emph{weak homotopy equivalence relation} in the definition of the fundamental groupoid, as well as replacing the Hausdorff space by the compactly-generated space $X_{cg}$. Therefore, the weak homotopy data for the \emph{weak homotopy double groupoid} of $X_{cg}$, $\boldsymbol{\rho}^{\square} (X_{cg})$, will now be: \\ \end{definition} \[ \begin{array}{c} (\boldsymbol{\rho}^{\square}_2 (X), \boldsymbol{\rho}_1^{\square} (X) , \partial^{-}_{1} , \partial^{+}_{1} , +_{1} , \varepsilon _{1}) , \boldsymbol{\rho}^{\square}_2 (X), \boldsymbol{\rho}^{\square}_1 (X) , \partial^{-}_{2} , \partial^{+}_{2} , +_{2} , \varepsilon _{2})\\[3mm] (\boldsymbol{\rho}^{\square}_1 (X) , X , \partial^{-} , \partial^{+} , + , \varepsilon). \end{array}\] \begin{thebibliography}{9} \bibitem{BHKP} R.
