  • Rated as a Good Article on 23rd May and nominated two days later.
  • Both the article creator and the GA reviewer are specialists in the field of snooker articles, and I am happy with the breadth of coverage and the reliability of sources used.
  • I have read the article in some detail and compared the text with the sources, and there is no close paraphrasing, copyvio etc.; and all significant aspects of Cliff's career have been covered in a suitable way. Wording is neutral throughout, with suitable use of attributed quotes.
  • The Independent obituary notes that he reached a world ranking of #14 in 1988/89, contrary to what the article states (#16 in that season), but I have reviewed several other sources and I am happy that his year-end ranking was indeed #16 (I assume that he briefly reached #14 mid-season; rankings tend to change a lot during the course of a season).
  • Both hooks are fine to use: accurate, short enough and interesting. I would say the ALT1 is more interesting overall to the casual reader.
