• "2019-20 season." en-dash.

• "with £100,000 to the winner." going to the winner?
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "who lost just one match in the event" I don't follow. He hadn't won it before yet he'd been in three finals, so he must have lost at least twice?
  • I can see how this is confusing now. He reachd the prior two events season's finals. So, he reached the European and German Masters final, he lost one match over three events. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• You say in the infobox it was organised by the WPBSA but that's not mentioned or referenced in the main body of the article.
  • Removed - it's a hard thing to source. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "3 to 9 February 2020[1][2] in" move those refs (do we need two?) to the end of the sentence.

• "chosen from players with the most ranking points " was it chosen from them, or simply the top 32 ranking players?

• You link ranking the second time in the Overview para.
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• It's also linked again further down. Twice more.
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• German Masters 2020 is overlinked.
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "It is the eleventh ranking event..." and then you link specific year events. Perhaps "It was..." or link the generic tournaments if you wish to keep the tense.

• "(does not affect prize-money rankings)[6]" no need to repeat this.
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "The list to the right" I don't think this list is necessary. The players who qualified and their seedings is shown in the table at the bottom. No-one really cares about how many ranking points each player had.
  • People love their table-cruft. Removed Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "met Scott Donaldson (after meeting" met/meet repeat.
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "before Trump won the next two frames to force a deciding frame." then what happened??
  • Who knows? Probably did a thing. Added. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "had 4–0 whitewashes" doesn't sound right, they didn't "have" them, they "whitewashed" them...
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "drew John Higgins, with Higgins winning the first two frames" -> "drew John Higgins who won the first two frames"
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "Although Higgins scored two" reads odd to me. I assume you mean he drew two fouls from the opponent from his snookers?
  • I did Indeed. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "had won.[24] He won" repetitive.
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "313–1 in points" unusual way of putting it, could you rephrase so it's more understandable that his opponent scored just a single point to his 313?
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "seemed to have frame 17 won" not encyclopedic, stick to facts.
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "match winners.[8][28][15]" order.
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "10-8 in the final." en-dash.
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• "Leo Scullion." no need for for full stop, and where is this referenced? Could be mentioned in the prose too.
  • Added to prose Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• Remove website names from ref titles.
  •  Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
• Check ref titles for spaced hyphens, should be en-dashes.
• Check refs have fully populated fields (e.g. BBC should usually have a publication date).

That's it for now, on hold. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 10:11, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

  • I've addressed all of the above TRM Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:16, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
    • Okeydokes, I made a couple of tweaks and it's good to go. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 07:55, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
