Ranking Points Table[edit]

So what are we going to do with the ranking points table, now that the two pages have been merged and it seems like the consensus is to not make individual columns for each cutoff? The "change in rankings" column is especially problematic, since we don't have a template to update that automatically now.--Ui56k (talk) 20:57, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I assume it will take a similar form to this: 2020–21 snooker world rankings#Ranking points. Betty Logan (talk) 05:32, 30 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cut-off 6[edit]

@Ui56k: I started updating the rankings, please add the 2020/21 and 2022/23 season columns. You know how to do it. Thanks, Maiō T. (talk) 12:05, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Will do in a day or two as I was waiting for the official list to sort out the ties near the bottom of the ranking list. Ui56k (talk) 14:16, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ui56k: OK. Where did you find that official list? There are different numbers than on http://www.snooker.org/res/index.asp?template=36&season=2022 - some players lost 3000 points. Maiō T. (talk) 15:50, 7 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

tl;dr: Liang Wenbo.

So as we all know, Liang got suspended in October by World Snooker(WST) for reasons unknown. However, before he was suspended, he entered a couple of qualifiers and qualified for the Scottish Open main stage, as the entry deadline was before he got suspended. Since he got suspended, he was unable to play in the main stages of the Scottish. According to the ranking rules I've read, players who qualified for the main stages of a tournament but did not play a match at the main venue may have their prize money and hence ranking points revoked unless a valid reason is provided (See: https://wst.tv/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Tour-Prize-Money-Ranking-Points-Schedule-2022-2023-Season-v1.pdf ). So, I thought Liang's Scottish Open prize money would be revoked since this is the situation described in said rule, but I guess WST added the points anyways.

Peter Lines' situation is kind of an oversight on my part. As you can see, Lines got a bye in the English Open qualifying as his opponent is Liang, so I applied the above rule, which, after thinking for a while, doesn't make sense on my part, as it's no different to normal qualifying I guess.

Please don't hesitate to notify me if there are other discrepancies between snooker.org's list and my list, or if there are any more questions. Ui56k (talk) 13:27, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

OK I finally understood what you meant when you meant "some players" when in fact it's a lot of players who didn't have the English Open 3k points added. The reason is that I forgot to trigger the cutoff on my list. Will fix it soon. Ui56k (talk) 10:27, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ui56k: It's fine, never mind, more important will be the final version. Anyway I think the best source for our big table could be https://wpbsa.com/rankings/latest-provisional-seedings/ - is it the same as your list? The Snooker.org's lists disappointed me. For example, recently, they forgot about 1500 points for pre-qualifiers. Maiō T. (talk) 17:48, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Colour coding top results ?Ranking Points Table[edit]

I was thinking it might be a nice idea to colour code the points table to indicate tournament winners and runners up, similar to how the F1 tables colour code 1st,2nd and 3rd places in their championship standing tables. Thoughts?145.8.180.220 (talk) 12:53, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Next season?[edit]

When is the 2023/24 season version of this article created?

Also, why does this article have a slash and not a dash in its title? MisterRerack (talk) 07:33, 27 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
