Lead

• "was a professional snooker tournament that took place from 26 November to 8 December 2019." - please include the location and the venue where the tournament took place
  • Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:55, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "had won the previous two championships, defeating Shaun Murphy 10–5 in the 2017 final, and Mark Allen 10–6 in the 2018 final." - this is not mentioned in the prose. I think it should be and it should also be verified by a reliable source which explicitly states this information
  • Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:55, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "It was the first maximum break to be made at the UK Championship since 2016, and the third of Hawkins' career." - this needs to be included in the main prose since it is only mentioned in the lead
  • Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:55, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

Overview

• Think some mention of the broadcasting coverage the tournament received should be included here
  • done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:58, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

Summary

• "with matches not televised." - this portion of information is not mentioned in the Sporting Life source. Another source is needed to accompany it
  • removed Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "Murphy had lead the match 3–1," - typo; should be led
  • Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)}
• The second BBC Sport attached to the sentence "Gilbert commented after the match that there were "no positives" from the match, and he wanted to "smash up [his] cue"." makes no mention of it. It can also be used to expand some coverage of the early rounds with fascinating and relevant material
  •  Working Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
    • Added a bit. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:59, 4 October 2020 (UTC)
• BBC Sport and footage I've seen state Hawkins' 147 was made in the fourth frame not the third
  • Fixed Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "World number 9 Kyren Wilson was defeated by world number 56 Marco Fu on a deciding frame 5–6." - not mentioned by Reference 14 so a new source is needed to verify this piece of text
  • Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• Judd Trump does not need to be wikilinked for a second time
  • Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "Bond trailed 1-3" - en dash is needed here
  • Fixed Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "including a break of 114" - BBC Sport does not state Bond made a break of 114 en route to beating Judd Trump. Another source is needed for this fact
  • I misread the source, removed Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "6-5 having trailed 2–5." - an en dash is needed in place of the hyphen indicated in bold
  • Fixed Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "tie the match at 4-4" - same issue as above
  • Fixed Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "6-3 despite not making a break" - same issue as above
  • Fixed Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "in excess of 50." - close repetition of the BBC Sport source that verifies this portion of text
• "Maguire completed a 6-0" - en dash please
  • Fixed Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "Post match, Allen commented that he was "shellshocked" - I think you could expand from the Eurosport quote to say "a bit shell-shocked"
  • Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "Stephen Maguire had won the event previously in 2004 and reached the final again in 2007 UK Championship," - just 2007 will suffice here
  • Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• "break of his own to lead 9-6" - another en dash is needed
  • Fixed Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
• Think it should be mentioned that this the third time Ding won the UK Championship
