Created page to allow the list on the World championship page to be better focused. There are events that are of very different notability appearing in the same place while missing important events. The expected usage of this page is to include notable world championships in mind sports. While any game can have a world championship I would suggest that:

I have moved the page so as its name better reflects its purpose Tetron76 ( talk) 19:17, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
I'm genuinely curious. [Note: Although I obviously can't prove it, I am GLmathgrant, an old Wikipedia user who has since forgotten his password and can't retrieve it because the account is associated with an old e-mail address.] 74.197.23.194 ( talk) 16:18, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
A competition described as a national is not a World Championship even if it were a major competition. Quizes probably can consititute a mind sport just as puzzles did so World Quizzing Championship would probably count. I think an academic quiz is questionable but the main issue is that it doesn't fit with this page. Perhaps another list is needed.
The Academic Competition Federation (ACF) and National Academic Quiz Tournaments (NAQT) hold collegiate championship tournaments that are attended by universities from Great Britain, Canada, as well as the United States. The NAQT also holds the High School National Championship which is attended by schools from Guam, China, Great Britain, Canada, and the United States. The Partnership for Academic Competition Excellence also holds a high school championship tournament the National Scholastic Championship (NSC). The NSC is typically only contested by teams from Canada and the United States.

There is yet a third organization holding a world championship in dominoes and calling itself World Federation: Federación Internacional de Dominó, an article on the 2014 world championships. This one appears to be team rather than individual, and at that point I gave up on trying to fit it into the table. Yngvadottir ( talk) 22:29, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
Does World Quizzing Championship count as a mind sport? Hmm I see they are pushing for it: [7]
Well, what else is it, if not a mind sport? It is certainly not a physical sport. E-sports are much more physical than quizzing. It is a mind sport, and arguably much larger than many of the sports included here, with several thousand participants each year in the WQC. Mumroos ( talk) 06:31, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
There are only men champions. Must we place women champions there or will be another article for women? Bars 23 ( talk) 10:12, 16 October 2016 (UTC)

given nov2019 /info/en/?search=FIDE_World_Fischer_Random_Chess_Championship_2019 what about adding this as a separate thing? Thewriter006 ( talk) 16:17, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
Shouldn't the Ryuuou title be considered as the World Champion of Shogi? The Meijin title is restricted to professional Shogi players only, while amateurs can qualify for the Ryuuou by winning an amateur title. Furthermore the Ryuuou title winner is awarded a higher cash prize than the meijin title. 2A02:908:1A1:E8A0:0:0:0:6A98 ( talk) 01:29, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
