=== Addition of events ===
The 1st WWC consisted of [[changquan]], [[Dao (Chinese sword)|daoshu]], [[Jian (sword)|jianshu]], [[Gun (staff)|gunshu]], [[Qiang (spear)|qiangshu]], [[Nanquan (martial art)|nanquan]], [[taijiquan]], and men's [[Sanda (sport)|sanda]] (originally called sanshou). Starting in 1993 with the 2nd WWC, the IWUF compulsory routines were to be used in taolu competition. In 1999, [[taijijian]], [[nandao]], and [[nangun]] were added. That same year, the second set of compulsory routines were approved, and thus in the 6th WWC in 2001, the old and new compulsory routine events were held simultaneously. During the next rendition in 2003, duilian and women's sanda were added. Then in 2005 with the rules revision and new scoring system, compulsory routines were discontinued. The following rendition in 2007 introduced incidental music for taijiquan and taijijian events.

In 2013 after the ratification of the third set of compulsory routines, additional events for compulsory changquan, nanquan, and taijiquan were held at the WWC that year as well as in 2015. The 2015 WWC also introduced traditional events: men's [[Xing Yi Quan|xingyiquan]] and dadao, and women's [[baguazhang]] and shuangjian. These traditional events would reappear at the 14th and 15th WWCs though men's dadao was replaced with shuangdao. Also in the 15th WWC in 2019, the competition consisted of a creative group-set (jiti) event with certified and celebrity judges as a demonstration event. The 16th WWC will also consist of a demonstration event.

The sum totals of gold, silver and bronze medals are not equal for the following reasons:

* Sanda events changed from awarding one bronze medal to two bronze medals per event in 1993.
* Occasional none-awarding or sharing of prizes.
* The 1995 rendition had several winners per each prize in taolu events while sanda events only awarded a gold medal to the winner of each event.
* Stripped medals are taken into account in the table above.
