Update
editNeed info on the 2009 tournament as it becomes available, and need to add links to World Scrabble Championship 2009. (That article could use some help, too.)--Fabrictramp | talk to me 22:22, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

editCan someone make them sortable? Turkeyphant 21:37, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
2010
editDoes anyone have 2010 results? Turkeyphant 21:38, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- The tournament is held only every two years. You will have to wait until 2011 for the next results. HumphreyW (talk) 21:44, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
Peter Morris?
editWikipedia:Articles for deletion/Peter Morris (Scrabble) ruled him non-notable, but the French never removed him and we look to have articles on all the other individual champions. Should he be revived or stay buried?--T. Anthony (talk) 07:37, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
Lengthy List of Participants
editAs at 2015, the list of participants in the past World Championships is getting rather lengthy. Would it be advisable to split the list into 2 halves, one for pre-2000 and another for post 2000s? Quite a number of the players did not quitted/joined later. Yongjianrong (talk) 15:31, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
Listing players with surnames first on the articles for individual years
editThis comment isn't about this article but about all of the articles for individual tournament years that include tables of "Complete Results" with the names of each player (for example see World Scrabble Championship 1991). Each of those tables currently lists the players in a "Surname, Firstname" format. I'd like to propose changing all of these to a "Firstname Surname" format, in the same way that the winners and runners-up are listed on this article. Two reasons for this are: 1) The way the names are currently formatted makes the articles not show up when someone searches a person's full name as an exact phrase within Wikipedia; 2) it's currently way more work to add wikilinks for the names (many of which are missing) because every link has to be piped. I can do this work at some point soon if there are no objections. -FrogUnderALilyPad (talk) 17:44, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
