# Talk:2020 Welsh Open (snooker)

Surely you would want the page to have as much info as possible. Including Referees lists is a unique section which is not prominent elsewhere. The current pages don’t really say anything that can’t be found elsewhere. This is an opportunity to further increase the info of tournaments.
I made these records after watching hours of snooker, why would I make up who the referees are? This is 100% accurate. Like I say this is an addition not a change. You should look positively at this. I don’t want to interfere with all your other work, don’t worry about that haha, I just think this is a good way to include unique info. 
All 16 referees in my records are also listed on the matches on the cuetracker website. I can’t attach a link to reference for some reason. All my records of referees match with the ones on there so surely that backs up my original research.

I swear on my life all info is correct.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:AF2E:C600:F0C2:C3FE:B71D:5166 (talk) 10:54, 22 February 2021 (UTC) 

Context, this addition. The problem is, you've fundamentally misunderstood what Wikipedia is. Wikipedia is not a place for all information, and the whole point is that it is information that other reliable sources say. What you have, is a lot of original research, which isn't what we do here. We summarise what reliable sources say about the subject. The reason why you can't link to cuetracker is that the reliability is so poor we have blacklisted links to it.

We always need to remember that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Articles need to have sufficient information to hopefully provide what most readers are interested in. Highly detailed information, like a full list of referees or frame scores for every match, is something for the snooker stats websites like cuetracker, not for us. We have a long-standing system of recording the referee of the final and my own view is that this is about right for us, since refereeing a final is seen as something of an honour and is more widely reported eg https://wst.tv/corporate/referees/triple-crown-final-referees/.

Who broadcast the tournament internationally?
I'm wondering if maybe I should do these as a table in future. Food for thought, added. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:14, 8 July 2021 (UTC)


### Prize fund
The prize for the maximum break and the total prize fund need to be verified by a reliable source

### Summary
"Ashley Carty defeated Joe Perry, seeded 17th" - missing a comma at the end of this text
The above text needs verifying with a reliable source since World Snooker does not mention Perry was seeded 17th
