I agree! He clearly hit the ground running as a pool player in 1999. I'll update the above as soon as I can. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 19:14, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

I have now fixed the issues above. I will tag paywalls over time. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:43, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

Alright, ready to go then. Juxlos (talk) 09:24, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

• Is there any info on the 2005 and 2009 Mosconi Cups? It's not in his career section.
  • Added Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
• "Lely would be a part of the successful team at the 2008 Mosconi Cup." Probably should add that he was the non-playing captain.
  • added Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
• Don't see the reason to duplicate refs 4, 6, and 23 from one source.
  • Combined Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

• And also, probably not the right quote for the latter. "It was my debut in the World Pool Masters and I was collecting autographs of my fellow competitors" is what I found in the ref.

• • removed Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
• Add publishers to references, and archive dates need to be fixed for consistency.
• "thanks to his win at the Masters." ProPool might be a better source, since it shows that he was on the team unlike AZBilliards.
  • Changed Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
• "Despite surprisingly" WP:EDITORIAL.
  • Reworded Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
• Ref 11 (Billiard-Walker) doesn't show year 2000.
  • Changed ref Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
• Ref 15 needs an archive link.
• No need to link Ralf Souquet more than once.
  • fixed. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
• Any chance you can translate the name of the Polish player that Lely defeated in the 2005 European Pool Championships Eight-ball event?
  • Yah, it's my boy Tomasz Kapłan. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

• Would be a good idea to add that the reference is in Russian too.

• • • Tagged Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
• "2007 WPA World Nine-ball Championship he retired" Comma after championship.
  • Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
• For ref 19, the author should be put in the right location in {{cite web}}.
• Ref 20 needs a date.
  • Done Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
• Ref 26 has an author.
  • Added Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
• Maybe it's just me, but Ref 28 looks really sketchy compared to other sources used.
  • Sadly, that was just the quality of the old World Pool Masters site. I don't think the WPA fixed the site very quickly after they inherited it. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
• Pictures are fine; OTRS approved.
  • Ideal. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:52, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
