The smashed cue story

Unresolved

– Sources claimed to exist but are not cited in article.

Unless there's a credible source for this wild yarn, I propose just deleting it completely. Too much bunk has been added to this article recently, even a fake death date — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 21:03, 12 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

See inter alia P115 of Mordecai Richler's ' On Snooker', Yellow Jeresy Press, 2001

--194.125.21.131 12:39, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It was reported in Snooker Scene Magazine in 2000, and Mordecai Richler's book "On Snooker" a year later also detailed it and featured quotations from Robidoux.

Don't tell me that sources supposedly exist; cite them in the article. — SMcCandlish Talk⇒ ʕ(^Õل^ō)ˀ Contribs. 04:48, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

His book

Resolved

– False information removed from article.

Have been uanble to find any reference for this book in English at least. --194.125.21.131 12:48, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just a hoax edit. — SMcCandlish Talk⇒ ʕ(^Õل^ō)ˀ Contribs. 09:03, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Trick shot artists (removed)

I removed this category since nothing in the article suggests he's ever been a professional or notable amateur in trick shot competition, either snooker or pool style. — SMcCandlish Talk⇒ ʕ(^Õل^ō)ˀ Contribs. 04:48, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Why not actually USE the cited sources?

The Hendon source alone could double the number of facts in this article. I have other fish to fry, and mostly do cleanup work when it comes to snooker articles, so I'll leave this for someone more active on this topic. Also, the Ronnie O'Sullivan article probably has additional sources and details on the left-handed incident (several details here are unsourced and tagged as such). — SMcCandlish Talk⇒ ʕ(^Õل^ō)ˀ Contribs. 07:13, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
