Formally, sports are organized comparative activities requiring "commitment, strategy, and fair play, in which a winner can be defined by objective means"[1], which means that nearly all games are sports if their exists a social organization to support them. However, in common use sports are considered activities requiring physical effort - calling Chess a sport does usually not come natural while Soccer is typically referred to as a sport regardless of if a match is organized or not. The categorization on the wiki follows the common use of the term.
