The (W) tiles, from a rating standpoint, are around 200 points lower than the regular title.

NM in the US is roughly similar to CM for FIDE. Other countries with NM titles may be much different.

NM is no FIDE title, depends on your National Federation. Then there is CM, unsure bout the specs, I suppose 2200 Elo, then FM (need once 2300 rating slow games), then IM, "once 2400 rating, plus "norms", or some titles such as national champion, may vay, the GM, rating 2500 once at least, plus norms, or other special titltes (changes with time).

See Wikipedia or FIDE pages for more detailed and accurate info.

FIDE titles are granted "for life".

yea, Nm is not FIDE given
