Page Structure

Given that each federation has different qualification structures, pyramids, and teams eligible, and compete independently of each other in qualification, would it make more sense for the page be separated by federation instead of round? Djpetrin15 (talk) 03:59, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This has been discussed in detail in prior years, especially 2015 (here) and 2016 (here). The consensus was to leave it in the format of the 2016 article, in which format it has been for all subsequent years including the current one. Matilda Maniac (talk) 04:06, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
