Following the Waldo proof, there is recent work showing how to convince
someone that you have solved a Sudoku puzzle without revealing the solution
(this is a recent paper by Gradwohl, Naor, Rothblum and myself). The paper
describes cryptographic and *physical* protocols for this task, accompanied
by rigorous definitions and analysis.
The paper and a demo are available at

I think the first people to consider "i can find Waldo" proofs were
Naor, Naor & Reingold. You might want to add a reference to their paper
"Applied Kid Cryptography" in your write-up:
