  • Comment: Sadly, I don't have any pictures :/ - There's a tonne of interesting things here, but these ones stick out. The team one is my choice, as the team article also meets the criteria, so it's preferable for two noms. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 22:09, 24 August 2019 (UTC)

  • Lee Vilenski, please note that you will need to supply a second QPQ review, one per each article used in the hook, since you prefer the double hook ALT3. Thanks! BlueMoonset (talk) 03:54, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
  • These two articles are new enough and long enough. The articles are neutral and I detected no copyright or plagiarism issues. Two QPQs have been done. If we are wanting a two-article hook, we are looking at ALT3. Now I am familiar with snooker and its scoring, but not pool. I can see the hook facts in both articles, so please tell me how the tiebreaker works. Was Peach involved in all of these frames or did he just clinch the match? Why does the article mention Britain in one place and the United Kingdom elsewhere? Should the hook mention the nationality of the team involved? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:11, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
  • thanks for the review Cwmhiraeth, the playoff isn't a normal thing in pool, it was specific for this tournament. So, it was a playoff match with a first to six frames, but each team had to win by two frames. It was also in rotation, so the interesting bit is that the match was tied for such a long time, and that Peach was the one (out of four) that won the match. The thing about the countries was the sourcing was in German for some of the articles, I'm pretty sure it was a British team, rather than a United Kingdom, but I don't think there are any Irish pool players regardless.

  • Would you be happy with ALT3a? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:24, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote ALT3a, but it just seems like a straight score line: Person wins match with this score. If it's so interesting that it was tied for so long, maybe say that in the article and hook. If the playoff match was unique to the tournament, say that in the hook.

Sorry didn't realise this had stalled. This one is quite similar to the Isner Vs Mahut Wimbledon match, in that it was a best-of-11-racks match, but in total 52 racks were played. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 20:38, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
  • Yes, thanks, that works better for novices like me. Restoring tick for ALT3b per Cwmhiraeth's and SL93's reviews. Yoninah (talk) 20:49, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
