  • " Mr A. H. Collins-Orme" - I don't know about British English, but in American English at least, there should be a full stop after Mr. I'm not super familiar with the pecularities of BE, though.
  • "John Roberts Sr" - Full stop after Sr? There's full stops after Jr. and Sr. earlier in the list
  • "a staff member at The Sportsman - italicize The Sportsman, since it's the name of a publication
  • "The first snooker competition organised by the BA&CC was the English Amateur Championship" - What BA&CC stands for has never been directly introduced? Well actually it is, but in the next section. Move the acronym explanation up to here
  • "shot at the oject ball after a foul" - You mean object ball, right?
  • "Loss of Control of the Professional Game" - Control isn't a proper noun, so it shouldn't be capitalized in the heading
  • "Leslie Driffield, a member of the BA&CC Council was present at a meeting" - Comma after Council, see MOS:HEADCAPS
  • "Loss of Control of the International Amateur Game - Why are some of these words capitalized? Headings are suppose to be in sentence case, I believe
  • "At the beginning of the 1990s, the B&SCC was struggling financially as a result of the removal of its Sports Council funding" - It's worth mentioning why the funding was cut
  • "Successor Organisations" - Organisations should be lowercase
  • Ref 26 (Shamos) needs the page number
  • The Google Books pages are actually from a different book to the one that is shown at the link. (The New Illustrated Encyclopedia of Billiards, not The Complete Book of Billiards.) Reference amended. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 08:52, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Be consistent with capitalization in references. Some are in sentence case, others are in title case. Pick one and stick with it.

That's all I've found. Placing on hold. Hog Farm Bacon 02:06, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've hopefully addressed your points above, Hog Farm. Let me know if anything else needs to be done. Thanks and regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 11:08, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
