What is No. in the tables?
Supposed to be a count of how many finals they've been in. I'm not the biggest fan, but I can see the need for in bigger articles (such as Steve Davis.) Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 18:18, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed a few dashes and punctuation issues there. Now, I noticed you're using flags without explanation, that old chestnut... The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 12:51, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Rambling Man, no problem, I simply removed the flags. I'm not sure why they are necessary when talking about major finals. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:37, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, so timeline notes need references but that seems to be a wider issue. It's not super-fundamental, but please do continue to find out how the project wishes to cite claims about tournament names etc on all such articles. I'm very happy with the rest of the work done here so I'm promoting. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 19:24, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
