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. If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can join the discussion and see a list of open tasks.Cue sportsWikipedia:WikiProject Cue sportsTemplate:WikiProject Cue sportscue sports articles
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.
– Have sources, add material. Don't have sources, don't add material.
The article does not specify whether there are any variations in which shot(s) must be called. It does state that flukes count. In the rotation game I am used to play, for example, all shots must be called; ball in hand is in effect after any foul. I am sure there are customs that differ from region to region, so some lookup needs to be done in regards to the rule vatiants; while at that, something should be said about which parts of the world this game is common in. --ChaChaFut 02:04, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Find a source for those rules, then add a variant in the article. The non-called shot, and non-ball-in-hand nature, of the mainstream version of this game is very reliably sourced. Same goes for where it is played; we don't seem to have any sources for that. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 18:28, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
For generations, world championships in a variety of pool disciplines have been played. I wonder they ever held a world championship in rotation? 61.9.126.41 13:09, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Unknown. The BCA book (see "References" section), lists rotation, along with nine-ball, eight-ball, and several others as a tournament game (and 30+ other games as simply recreational ones). Tournaments are certainly held, in both the US and the Philippines, but I don't know if one has ever boldly called itself the World Rotation Championship. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 18:28, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Some Filipinos even go so far as to refer to it as "the national cue sport of the Philippines."{{Fact|date=July 2007}}<!--That's such an outlandish claim that it needs a fact tag despite presence of unreferenced-section tag!-->
Please do not return this information to the article without a citation to support it.--BirgitteSB 20:53, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I don't get the amount of safety shots. It says that they are limited to "two such shots per player per game." Yet in the beginning of the article it is said that a "match" consists of multiple "frames". What is a game then? A frame?

"Game" meant "frame" in that context, but I agree it was ambiguous and have fixed it. — SMcCandlishTalk⇒ ʕ(Õلō)ˀContribs. 19:08, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I've had to tone that down Eengner's additions with regard to this game, a lot. No one may use Wikipedia articles as a vehicle for blatant promotion; wording like "attracts the nation’s top amateurs as well as professional pool players" is not encyclopedic and violates WP:Neutral point of view policy. Wikipedia is not a Web index, and we can't place what amounts to classified advertisements here. It's also inappropriate to go on at such length in this article about nit-picky details that belong at American rotation. — SMcCandlish ☺☏¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 02:05, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
