Internal pages: Something like: [2][3]). Such pages are not fluff, but can be good places to find recruits for the project, possibly including subject-matter experts, especially if cross-referenced to the project. Also, Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Cue sports (cf. [4][5][6]).
Create timelines, both textual and graphical. See link for various guidelines and examples. We need an overall one for cue sports generally, and more specific ones as we drill down into more specific topics (timeline of nine-ball, timeline of Willie Mosconi's career, etc.).
Form sections: Exhibition game needs section on cue sports; could later form a new article with "Main article..." xref to it. What other general articles need cue sports sections?
Images: improve articles with images from commons; create pics and add them to commons as GFDL/CC-by/PD.
Add: {{Sport overview}} to main articles of cue games that are real sports; medal table tags where they apply (see Ding Junhui for example).
Insert: Cue sports events (tournament results, etc.) into the "year in sports" categories (e.g. 1965 in sports), using {{subst:Cue sports heading}} if that year doesn't have one yet.

Yes, manufacturers seem to quote small room sizes. Yes, the calculations shown in this article "prove" that the manufacturers are underscoping the room sizes.
However.
A couple of points:
1) Claiming that manufacturers are doing so for nefarious reasons (speculated in the article), not backed up by evidence, is hardly neutral, and:
2) We have for many years happily played with normal-size cues on a regulation 4.5 x 9 Gandy tournament-grade table in our house, in a room that is only 14.5' wide. According to the article, that should be impossible, because, the article claims, it requires a room two feet wider. This is hardly a minor discrepancy.
We are not in any way affiliated with pool table manufacturers, distributors, retailers, installers, etc. We work in the software industry. We like to play pool, and have a table in our house. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.14.154.3 (talk) 03:27, 31 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
