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:

The spelling of her name in Belarusian and Russian should be in the lead. See
Victoria Azarenka for an example.
I don't actually know how I would go about doing this (I wasn't aware that Russian names were different than Belarusian.) Any ideas who I could contact? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski(

I would suggest dividing the lead into two paragraphs.
Earlier on, it should state what tours and leagues she competes on or in. It seems like the Euro Tour, and the Baltic Pool League. I'm not sure what the Arena Opens are a part of, or if there is another tour or league I am missing?
Does she have a specialty, or expertise? If yes, that should go near the beginning. The infobox lists her as only playing 9-ball and 10-ball. Is that on purpose? Or were 8-ball and straight pool left out by mistake?
Not really mistake, mistake, nine-ball is by far the most popular type of pool out there. Realistically, pool players will play whatever is going, but I've added the others. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski(

I would recommend copyediting this section. There are many basic grammar mistakes.
Some of the sentences don't seem to state the associated pool game. For example: "Later that season she gained victory in the Baltic Pool League held in Tartu and in the final against Agnė Jarušauskaitė won 7–4"
I've mentioned at the first mention of the individual tours. It's pretty much all nine-ball.
What is the Baltic Pool League? How does it compare to the Euro Tour? Is she competing frequently or infrequently on each of these?
The Baltic Pool league isn't that big of a deal. The Euro Tour is the continental tour (hence the name) the BPL isn't even notable enough for it's own article in my eyes, but winning a tournament is worth including. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski(

Maybe divide this section into two sub-sections: one for junior career and one for senior or professional career?
I imagine her accomplishments from the last two years can be expanded to more than two sentences.
In general, the first three paragraphs cover four or five years, and the last paragraph covers five years. I would suspect the last five years could be expanded to be at least as long as the first five years, unless she has really played much less frequently as a senior player compared to as a junior.
Those are the main points I have. I think this article is far from passing, but it's also a short article, so it shouldn't take too long to fix. Placing on hold.

In the lead, this statement "She also reached the final of the European Junior Championship in 2014, losing 6–3 to Diana Khodjaeva." isn't in the prose.

It is "She also entered the junior events, reaching the semi-final of the eight-ball competition, and reached the final of the nine-ball competition, losing 3–6 to Kamila Khodjaeva" - it's the same person, actually (I'm not sure why so many players go by multiple names, but it's a translation issue I believe (someone like
Eklent Kaci has also been Klenty Kaci...) I'll make it consistent, and fix the score in the lede. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski(

It looks like for the events here, it's just the Girls Championships (not Youth, or Juniors) then? (And the Youth and Juniors are separate events.)
