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.

CueTracker, not a particularly reliable source, credits her with the following:
"1991 World Masters - Women's Singles - Amateur World Event", reaching the quarterfinals (losing 4–5 to Stacey Illyard of England, after being Kim Shaw of England in the last 16, and Natalie Stelmach of Canada in the last 32). Horsburgh would have been 17 or so at the time (depending on actual date of the event).

"1998 Womens World Championship - Amateur World Event", last 16 (losing 3–4 against Tessa Davidson of England, after beating Liz Jones of England, 4–0, in the last 32). Source: cuetracker.net/players/lynette-horsburgh/season/1997-1998?status=professional&categories=ranking,minor-ranking,non-ranking,league,invitational,tour-qualifier,6-reds
WP:WikiProject Snooker have had CueTracker blacklisted as a source, due to too many stats errors. So, a better source is needed for these early events, but are difficult to find online for non-recent womens' snooker. I've cited CueTracker anyway, as better than nothing, just with URLs commented out. — SMcCandlish☏ ¢ 😼 07:46, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Two more:
Got to the semi-finals of the UK Ladies Snooker Championship in 1985 at 11 in a field of over 80 players, losing out to the eventual winner Allison Fisher. Semifinal didn't even start until after 9pm. This was at Willie Thorne’s club in Leicester.
Became the then-youngest winner of a world ladies snooker ranking event at 14 after beating Karen Corr 4–3 in the final in Exeter in 1988 (possibly the Southern Classic, but not sure of even name). This was later topped by Ann-Marie Farren becoming with WLBSA (I think) World Ladies' Snooker Champion at age 11, in 1987. We need an article on her.
