Summary
edit- The term interval will be better off wikilinked to the correct article
- I'm a bit stuck for a target here. It doesn't appear in the Cue Sports Glossary (nor does "mid-session break"); none of the options at Interval seem right, and nor does Intermission (after looking at that article). BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 15:47, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
