Internal pages: Something like:
[2][3]). Such pages are not fluff, but can be good places to find recruits for the project, possibly including subject-matter experts, especially if cross-referenced to the project. Also,
Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Cue sports (cf.
[4][5][6]).
Create timelines, both textual and graphical. See link for various guidelines and examples. We need an overall one for cue sports generally, and more specific ones as we drill down into more specific topics (timeline of
nine-ball, timeline of
Willie Mosconi's career, etc.).
Form sections:
Exhibition game needs section on cue sports; could later form a new article with "Main article..." xref to it. What other general articles need cue sports sections?
Images: improve articles with images from commons; create pics and add them to commons as GFDL/CC-by/PD.
Add: {{Sport overview}} to main articles of cue games that are real sports; medal table tags where they apply (see
Ding Junhui for example).
Insert: Cue sports events (tournament results, etc.) into the "year in sports" categories (e.g.
1965 in sports), using {{subst:
Cue sports heading}} if that year doesn't have one yet.

The final is a best-of-27 this year, not a best-of-25 like last year. I edited this page to 27 frame final yesterday, and someone changed it back to the incorrect 25 frame final. Earlier in the season at one of the Coral series events, Jill Douglas mentioned the Tour Championship final was a best-of-27, which I thought others would have picked up on. TV guides are now stating it's a best-of-27 frame final.[1]
Ref.5 (
https://snookerhq.com/2020/03/16/tour-championship-draw-preview-2/) (dated 16 March, before the event was postponed) says the quarter-finals were first to nine (best of 17, correct), the semi-finals the first to ten (best of 19, incorrect), and the final taking place over a whopping 25 frames (also incorrect). Was this the original format that was changed after the event was postponed for 3 months? Or is it just blatantly incorrect information? In any case, we shouldn't be using this as a source for the match durations so I'll cut it out and tidy up... So it now occurs to me that the frame numbers were changed from the original format because in 2019 it was 17/19/25. This would be to do with the single table setup throughout and having to cram in more sessions, so should we pick up on that and explain the changes and why?
