Talk:World Snooker Championship

This page is an expansion of the old "Embassy World Snooker Championship" page. I've also rewritten a fair amount of it.

If anyone can help, I'd like to know how to get a table of contents. Also, the list of winners could probably be improved. --Auximines 10:52, 14 May 2004 (UTC)

Great work on the expansion. Just a heads up, even when you are going to expand an article under a new name, use the "move this page" button to move a page first rather than just copying and pasting the content. This preserves the edit history of the old material with their original authors, and the new stuff with you. If you run into any problems, give me or another admin a shout. You've been around about or month or so right? Give it another month or so and I will nominate you for adminship myself as I can see you are doing good things for Wikipedia. (I would nominate sooner, but there are some inflexible people at Requests for Adminship who care more about time served and number of edits rather than quality of edit or behaviour and an unsuccessful application has in the past jeopardized future re-applications).

[edit] 1927 World tournament

Regarding this event, the article states that the highest break of the tournament was achieved by Albert Cope who scored 60. However, another website (The Global Snooker Centre) claims that the highest break was 57 by Joe Davis. Does anyone know which of these is correct? ChicXulub (talk) 14:38, 15 May 2004 (UTC)

Albert Cope's 60 comes from another page on the same site, [1]. I assumed that the 57 by Joe Davis really meant the highest break in the final, though it's not clear. --Auximines 08:16, 17 May 2004 (UTC)
