Might be worth introducing players such as Smith, Van Gerwen, and Price as being "[so-and-so] World Champion", "defending champion", or "world No. x" at the time of the event. MB243719:48, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Done for Van Gerwen and Price. Smith hadn't won a major tournament nor become world number one at the time of his first mention in the article, so I've left his mentions the same Greenflipper (talk) 19:59, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'd say it may be worth noting Smith was the reigning world champion when he defeated him on the 2023 European Tour—all good here though. MB243722:17, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I've tried stacking the Development Tour seasons on top of each other. Is length of infobox an issue? It's something I've addressed on the darts wikiproject before Greenflipper (talk) 20:01, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Looks much better now; no issues with the length. The infobox design itself is more of a concern for the Project than this article. MB243722:16, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Added a Darts Database source that should cover most things except the rankings. Another one of those things that's a Wikiproject-wide issue Greenflipper (talk) 23:16, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Where did he debut on the youth tour? Any local competitions he was successful in prior? Which pub did he grow up playing at? Who are his parents? MB243719:48, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
None have much notable coverage, although I've added some details surrounding his UK Open semi-final run and his Worlds loss to Grant Sampson Greenflipper (talk) 22:36, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
No information on his personal adult life outside of darts, background on his nickname/walk-out music, or endorsements. MB243719:48, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Didn't find much that wasn't already covered in the early life section, included darts manufacturer and nickname explanation in the personal life section although I'm not sure if they belong there. Greenflipper (talk) 22:37, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Greenflipper, I see you are already updating the article from what I left in my sandbox, so I will refrain from putting this "on hold" for now; let me know when you would like me to check everything over. MB243719:48, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I forgot to add a point to 2b—not sure how easily that can be rectified. I'll have a look through when I can! MB243722:50, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
All good to proceed; to keep true to the standards, please make sure this article stays updated, hopefully with more details on his personal life if they are reliably published. Great job! MB243723:39, 2 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
