Add known results for 2018 world cup to "Best performances by continental zones".
Change:
Only on four occasions have consecutive World Cups been won by teams from the same continent, and currently it is the first time with three champions in a row from the same continental confederation. Italy and Brazil successfully defended their titles in 1938 and 1962 respectively, while Italy's triumph in 2006 has been followed by Spain's in 2010 and Germany's in 2014. Currently, it is also the first time that one of the currently winning continents (Europe) is ahead of the other (South America) by two championships.

In the "Teams reaching the top four" table France is shown to have 6 "Top 4 Finishes" - this should be 5 if the left part of the table is correct — Preceding unsigned comment added by Janjan.cz ( talk • contribs) 11:59, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
Since Canada will be one of the countries hosting the world cup in 2026, shouldn't the map of the host countries have Canada in the 'planned' category? Should the US and Mexico have their own colors on the map as well to signify that they too are upcoming hosts?

The rankings table following the list of World Cup Finals should be edited with regards to the countries listed. The Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, and Yugoslavia are all recognized by FIFA and UEFA as succeeded by Russia, the Czech Republic, and Serbia respectively. To remain contemporary and in light of FIFA's recognition of these member states as lawful and rightful successors to all records held by the Cold War era states, the table should be updated to accommodate this since the Cold War era states do not exist anymore and are fully recognized as honors held by their successors.

Location: 3rd paragraph of article; 2nd sentence: Change "Brazil have won five times, and they are the only team to ..." to "Brazil has won five times, and theirs is the only team to ..." by replacing 'have' with 'has' and 'they are' with 'theirs is'.

"Platini said that he would allocate an additional berth to UEFA, two to the Asian Football Confederation and the Confederation of African Football, two shared between CONCACAF and CONMEBOL, and a guaranteed place for the Oceania Football Confederation." The numbers given only add up to six, not eight. Presumably what is meant is that the Asian and African confederations each get two. If that is correct, recommend changing the text to "two each to the Asian". 71.235.184.247 ( talk) 12:54, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

As clarified by the text below the page's title, this article refers specifically to the men's tournament. The World Cup represents a dream of unity and international connection through the beautiful game that we all love. Let's try to keep sexism out of it as much as we can! I know that hearing the men's tournament referred to as "the" world cup always made me feel left out as I played (women's) youth soccer. This change would clarify the difference between the pages and would prevent othering of women's participation in the sport.

Uruguay displays four stars in its emblem – uniquely in world football, it includes their two gold medals in the 1924 Olympics and 1928 Olympics, which are regarded as FIFA world championships by the governing body. [1] [2]
The 1924 FIFA Congress ruled, “on condition that the Olympic Football Tournament takes place in accordance with the Regulations of FIFA, the latter shall recognize this as a world football championship”, [1] [2] and the 1924 and 1928 championships are regarded as equivalent to World Cups in the 1984 Official History of FIFA. [1] [2]
Hence Uruguay has two stars for 1924 and 1928 (recognized by FIFA as World Championships in accordance with the IOC) and 2 stars from the two World Cups from 1930 and 1950. [3]
Should these Olympic results be included in the Results section, but separated from the World Cup table already present? 2601:5C4:4301:5420:C11:E3AE:E71B:C6CA ( talk) 21:59, 4 July 2021 (UTC)

Suggestion - removal of bias:
Currently there are two pages for the different gendered FIFA World Cups - FIFA Women's World Cup, and FIFA World Cup. To remove gender bias from Wikipedia, shouldn't the main page for the FIFA Men's World Cup, point to that, rather than to an ungendered one for what is a Men's tournament? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.126.157.176 ( talk) 20:25, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

Can we remove the "No. of teams" column and instead split the table horizontally to separate <16, 16, 24, 36, and 48 team tournaments? I think this would enhance readability. As it is, this table is very misleading. -- Dazzling4 ( talk) 11:28, 15 December 2021 (UTC)

There is a big mistake in table "Teams reaching the top four" The table lists Russia as reaching 4th place in 1966. It was Soviet Union and not Russia who reached the 4th place in 1966. Soviet Union represented all 15 Soviet Republics, not just Russia, and some prominent players were nor russians. This is an insult to many people.

I made a mistake in my Edit Summary for adding the link for France in the list paragraph for winners. I said the opposite in the Edit Summary of my intent, omitting the word “not” re Argentina. Sorry! My belief is that it helps readers to have the reigning champion linked at both the beginning of the Intro and at the end, in the list paragraph. It simplifies searching and maintains stylistic flow. I hope Argentina will NOT be de-linked in the winner’s list paragraph. I believe that does NOT violate WP:OVERLINKING. Thanks for your consideration! Left Central ( talk) 20:14, 18 December 2022 (UTC)

Plese remove Cristiano Ronaldo picture in the section where it says he is the only player who has scored in 5 world cups.
Reason: This becomes a PR to Ronaldo as the player has flopped in all editions of the world cups he had played so far. Sandwiching his image between Messi and Pele would only provide fuel to his PR.
Wikipedia should not become a PR page for footballers. Rather it should mention about players who are worthy to be mentioned form the competition perspective. TheCaribbeanKid ( talk) 18:17, 27 December 2022 (UTC)

I noticed that my edit was reverted, so I wanted to discuss here--the current phrasing (" In the tournament phase, 32 teams compete for the title at venues...") is simply not accurate. It was accurate for (some) prior tournaments, but this article is about the World Cup as a whole; shouldn't it reflect the most current configuration of the tournament, which we know will be 48 teams in 2026? If not now, then when should we update this language? Meelar (talk) 15:05, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

Serbia should be changed to Yugoslavia. Serbia has never reached the top four. Yugoslavia consisted of many republics: Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, Macedonia, Kosovo, Bosnia-Herzogovina.

I agree that it's weird. If results have to be inherited by an existing country (which would make sense given that this is what happens for West Germany and URSS), I think that Croatia should be the heir of the titles. Croatia can claim that it went on to keep alive the football tradition of Yugoslavia, as it continued to win further titles. Serbia is the biggest of the ex-Yugoslavian countries, but size is the only claim they can make to those titles. So, I'd either count them separately, or add them to the team that went on to play football at a competitive international level.-- Asdrubalissimo ( talk) 01:25, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
I agree. Definitely should be Yugoslavia or Croatia. Serbia barely even qualify, they have never come top 4. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:625:9300:CD04:819E:6E5C:6D46 ( talk) 11:56, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
I'm wondering why it's called FIFA World Cup? I was looking for stats on the men's world cup hosts and couldn't find the article for men's world cup, just the general FIFA World Cup. But it's confusing cos there is a separate Women's World Cup wiki entry. They're both good quality imo, just the naming of the titles is kinda confusing. What do others think? I'm not a feminist or anything lol I just don't get why it's not just called Men's world cup? If that's what people are interesting in finding info about, they would search that right?

FIFA World Cup → FIFA Men's World Cup – No WP:PRIMARYTOPIC; the FIFA Women's World Cup is also widely referred to as the "World Cup". For example, the BBC, the Financial Times, 9 News, DW, RNZ, Fox Sports, news.com.au, etc. This can also be seen in Google Search trends; people are overwhelmingly using "World Cup" rather than "Women's World Cup". The proposed title would also be WP:CONSISTENT with FIFA Women's World Cup. If this move is successful, a dab page would be created here. BilledMammal ( talk) 10:22, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
is "FIFA World Cup" while the women's official name is "FIFA Women's World Cup", so the Consistent argument doesn't hold as the pages are currently titled matching their official namesWP:OFFICIALNAMES; we don't title our articles based on official names, so which one of them is the official name isn't relevant to assessing the primary topic and WP:CRITERIA.

Change:
Only on four occasions have consecutive World Cups been won by teams from the same continent, and currently it is the first time with three champions in a row from the same continental confederation. Italy and Brazil successfully defended their titles in 1938 and 1962 respectively, while Italy's triumph in 2006 has been followed by Spain's in 2010 and Germany's in 2014. Currently, it is also the first time that one of the currently winning continents (Europe) is ahead of the other (South America) by two championships.

In Yellow card (association football), we have : "In most tournaments, the accumulation of a certain number of yellow cards over several matches results in disqualification of the offending player for a certain number of subsequent matches, the exact number of cards and matches varying by jurisdiction."

The rankings table following the list of World Cup Finals should be edited with regards to the countries listed. The Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, and Yugoslavia are all recognized by FIFA and UEFA as succeeded by Russia, the Czech Republic, and Serbia respectively. To remain contemporary and in light of FIFA's recognition of these member states as lawful and rightful successors to all records held by the Cold War era states, the table should be updated to accommodate this since the Cold War era states do not exist anymore and are fully recognized as honors held by their successors.

Location: 3rd paragraph of article; 2nd sentence: Change "Brazil have won five times, and they are the only team to ..." to "Brazil has won five times, and theirs is the only team to ..." by replacing 'have' with 'has' and 'they are' with 'theirs is'.

"Platini said that he would allocate an additional berth to UEFA, two to the Asian Football Confederation and the Confederation of African Football, two shared between CONCACAF and CONMEBOL, and a guaranteed place for the Oceania Football Confederation." The numbers given only add up to six, not eight. Presumably what is meant is that the Asian and African confederations each get two. If that is correct, recommend changing the text to "two each to the Asian". 71.235.184.247 ( talk) 12:54, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

As clarified by the text below the page's title, this article refers specifically to the men's tournament. The World Cup represents a dream of unity and international connection through the beautiful game that we all love. Let's try to keep sexism out of it as much as we can! I know that hearing the men's tournament referred to as "the" world cup always made me feel left out as I played (women's) youth soccer. This change would clarify the difference between the pages and would prevent othering of women's participation in the sport.

Uruguay displays four stars in its emblem – uniquely in world football, it includes their two gold medals in the 1924 Olympics and 1928 Olympics, which are regarded as FIFA world championships by the governing body. [1] [2]
The 1924 FIFA Congress ruled, “on condition that the Olympic Football Tournament takes place in accordance with the Regulations of FIFA, the latter shall recognize this as a world football championship”, [1] [2] and the 1924 and 1928 championships are regarded as equivalent to World Cups in the 1984 Official History of FIFA. [1] [2]
Hence Uruguay has two stars for 1924 and 1928 (recognized by FIFA as World Championships in accordance with the IOC) and 2 stars from the two World Cups from 1930 and 1950. [3]
Should these Olympic results be included in the Results section, but separated from the World Cup table already present? 2601:5C4:4301:5420:C11:E3AE:E71B:C6CA ( talk) 21:59, 4 July 2021 (UTC)

Suggestion - removal of bias:
Currently there are two pages for the different gendered FIFA World Cups - FIFA Women's World Cup, and FIFA World Cup. To remove gender bias from Wikipedia, shouldn't the main page for the FIFA Men's World Cup, point to that, rather than to an ungendered one for what is a Men's tournament? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.126.157.176 ( talk) 20:25, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

Can we remove the "No. of teams" column and instead split the table horizontally to separate <16, 16, 24, 36, and 48 team tournaments? I think this would enhance readability. As it is, this table is very misleading. -- Dazzling4 ( talk) 11:28, 15 December 2021 (UTC)

There is a big mistake in table "Teams reaching the top four" The table lists Russia as reaching 4th place in 1966. It was Soviet Union and not Russia who reached the 4th place in 1966.

I made a mistake in my Edit Summary for adding the link for France in the list paragraph for winners. I said the opposite in the Edit Summary of my intent, omitting the word “not” re Argentina. Sorry! My belief is that it helps readers to have the reigning champion linked at both the beginning of the Intro and at the end, in the list paragraph. It simplifies searching and maintains stylistic flow. I hope Argentina will NOT be de-linked in the winner’s list paragraph. I believe that does NOT violate WP:OVERLINKING. Thanks for your consideration! Left Central ( talk) 20:14, 18 December 2022 (UTC)

Plese remove Cristiano Ronaldo picture in the section where it says he is the only player who has scored in 5 world cups.
Reason: This becomes a PR to Ronaldo as the player has flopped in all editions of the world cups he had played so far. Sandwiching his image between Messi and Pele would only provide fuel to his PR.
Wikipedia should not become a PR page for footballers. Rather it should mention about players who are worthy to be mentioned form the competition perspective. TheCaribbeanKid ( talk) 18:17, 27 December 2022 (UTC)

I noticed that my edit was reverted, so I wanted to discuss here--the current phrasing (" In the tournament phase, 32 teams compete for the title at venues...") is simply not accurate. It was accurate for (some) prior tournaments, but this article is about the World Cup as a whole; shouldn't it reflect the most current configuration of the tournament, which we know will be 48 teams in 2026? If not now, then when should we update this language? Meelar (talk) 15:05, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

Serbia should be changed to Yugoslavia. Serbia has never reached the top four. Yugoslavia consisted of many republics: Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, Macedonia, Kosovo, Bosnia-Herzogovina.

I agree that it's weird. If results have to be inherited by an existing country (which would make sense given that this is what happens for West Germany and URSS), I think that Croatia should be the heir of the titles. Croatia can claim that it went on to keep alive the football tradition of Yugoslavia, as it continued to win further titles. Serbia is the biggest of the ex-Yugoslavian countries, but size is the only claim they can make to those titles. So, I'd either count them separately, or add them to the team that went on to play football at a competitive international level.-- Asdrubalissimo ( talk) 01:25, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

I'm wondering why it's called FIFA World Cup? I was looking for stats on the men's world cup hosts and couldn't find the article for men's world cup, just the general FIFA World Cup. But it's confusing cos there is a separate Women's World Cup wiki entry. They're both good quality imo, just the naming of the titles is kinda confusing. What do others think? I'm not a feminist or anything lol I just don't get why it's not just called Men's world cup? If that's what people are interesting in finding info about, they would search that right?

FIFA World Cup → FIFA Men's World Cup – No WP:PRIMARYTOPIC; the FIFA Women's World Cup is also widely referred to as the "World Cup". For example, the BBC, the Financial Times, 9 News, DW, RNZ, Fox Sports, news.com.au, etc. This can also be seen in Google Search trends; people are overwhelmingly using "World Cup" rather than "Women's World Cup". The proposed title would also be WP:CONSISTENT with FIFA Women's World Cup. If this move is successful, a dab page would be created here. BilledMammal ( talk) 10:22, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
is "FIFA World Cup" while the women's official name is "FIFA Women's World Cup", so the Consistent argument doesn't hold as the pages are currently titled matching their official namesWP:OFFICIALNAMES; we don't title our articles based on official names, so which one of them is the official name isn't relevant to assessing the primary topic and WP:CRITERIA.
