- Comment: Item is still WIP, but getting nomination in before deadline for expansion passes.
5x expansion by Lee Vilenski (talk). Self-nominated at 12:16, 7 February 2020 (UTC).
- I'll review this one at lunchtime. Hassocks5489 (Floreat Hova!) 10:51, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
- Officially launched into mainspace (from draft) on 1st February. Nominated within the deadline as noted above.
- Prose length is fine at well over 7KB.
- Sourcing is fine: article uses all the usual reliable sources for snooker tournament articles (Worldsnooker.com, Sporting Life, BBC Sport and Eurosport websites). SnookerHQ.com, which could appear unreliable from a WP perspective at first glance, is known to be acceptable for snooker articles.
- Prose is fine and neutrally written throughout, with any quotations correctly identified; the article follows the usual format for snooker tournaments; and it is comprehensive.
- No copyvio, close paraphrasing or plagiarism noted.
- The hook fact is verified and suitably interesting. It could only happen to Mark Williams!!!
- QPQ review done.
Just one issue outstanding: in the "Early rounds" section, there is a [Citation needed] tag for the sentence about Ronnie; I imagine this shouldn't be difficult to cite. Hassocks5489 (Floreat Hova!) 13:22, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

- Lee Vilenski I'm going to have to be annoyingly pedantic and say the source added doesn't support the sentence that he has missed several ranking events this season: it only refers to the non-ranking Masters. This article from World Snooker would be better, so if you could swap it in I'll go ahead and mark as verified.
- Thanks for this Hassocks5489. I've added the ref. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 21:20, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
