Talk:World Chess Championship 1951

1948 Saltsjobaden Interzonal
How were the players selected for this tournament? It seems the selection process was much less formalised than the later zonal/interzonal system. Was it even called an "interzonal" at the time? MaxBrowne (talk) 05:18, 22 April 2014 (UTC)

Merger proposal
I believe the Interzonal article (Interzonal tournament, Saltsjöbaden 1948) should be merged to this one because: Adpete (talk) 07:16, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
 * about 50% of the Interzonal article (the table) is in this article anyway.
 * this article is short enough, that the page or so of text from the Interzonal article won't make it too long
 * The articles disagree with each other because they don't use the same sources. Merging them will consolidate all the information in one place.
 * As far as I can see, no other world chess championship cycle article has a separate WP article on its Interzonal.
 * The interzonal article would become a redirect, so we can always retrieve it if needs be.


 * I agree wholeheartedly. dllu (talk) 09:59, 13 December 2017 (UTC)


 * There was one objection one sort-of-objection at at Articles related to world championship cycles (April 2018 if it gets archived). I don't care either way so I've removed the merger template. Adpete (talk) 05:49, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
