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.

I've been working on the first round section and still have para 3 to finish off. Maguire's double-fluke shot is confusing me a bit because I think we're using the wrong naming convention for the pockets.
"He attempted to pot a red ball into the bottom right pocket" — I think this should be the top right pocket because according to the cueglossary, the end where the reds are racked is called the "top" of the table, even though it appears at the bottom of the screen when viewing on TV, hence the confusion, but I've always understood it to be the "top". The "bottom" of the table is the baulk end, so the cue ball ended up in the bottom right pocket after rolling down the table (although I acknowledge that the commentator said "up the table").
Indeed, both should be swapped. It's difficult, because from a viewer, it seems like the wrong way around. It's been very clear for years which end is the "bottom", and which is the "top". Can we find a second source that actually describes the shot? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski(talk • contribs)08:25, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
