This article is within the scope of WikiProject Cue sports, a collaborative effort to improve the coverage of pool, carom billiards and other cue sports on Wikipedia.

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.
Hi, first time leaving a comment, so I do hope I'm doing this correctly and in the right place! I love the Wikipedia Snooker calendar page, I was just thinking that the one thing it's missing is marking out the three Major tournaments (aka 'Triple Crowns'). Similar to the Golf and Tennis calendar pages, the major events could be marked out in bold? Which would be simple to do, and could be easily signified in the key box below. I'd be happy to help if doing it to all the previous years would seem daunting. Alexgriffin81 (talk) 11:08, 18 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Doesn't seem to be covered by MOS:NOBOLD but not by MOS:BOLD either: "but is considered appropriate only for certain usages.". As always with these sort of things there's a danger of just adding gimmicky extras. The table already fails MOS:COLOR: "Ensure that color is not the only method used to communicate important information. Especially, do not use colored text or background unless its status is also indicated using another method". Remember to consider WP:ACCESSIBILITY issues: What about readers on other types of devices, with different levels of eyesight? Personally I wouldn't be against it in this case.

I'd also add that tennis is a particularly bad example to follow. So many of their articles fail many aspects of Wikipedia policies and guidelines. Nigej (talk) 11:59, 18 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It starts on Wednesday. It's on Channel 5 this year, not the BBC Red Button. The draw has been made for weeks. Why hasn't the wiki page been created? MisterRerack (talk) 07:14, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps because none of our regular editors are very interested in it. Likely to be "notable" (WP:N) so any registered user can create it if they're keen enough. Nigej (talk) 07:41, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
