A banzuke note for 1952 Aki is wrong: Nagoroiwa was promoted to sekiwake, not komusubi

I don't see any error. There is a K there, but presumably that means that he got the Kanto-sho.

[ryafuji 814]

Misled by the "Asashio 10-5 S" immediately above, I guess. He did get sekiwake next time

[themistyseas 240]

Kabu page lists Asahiyama, Asakayama, Isegahama, Miyagino, Tomozuna beya as being in Tatsunami ichimon even though Tatsunami beya itself is listed in Dewanoumi ichimon. This should probably be Isegahama ichimon, right?

[ryafuji 814]

I believe Irodori's full shikona is Irodori Takateru, not Yutaka. (See his Kyokai profile here.)

Is it just me or has the database been down practically every 5 minutes these past few days?

I'd be glad if it was just you.

[Asashosakari 19,206]

A bit of an odd bug, the list of shikona changes for Hatsu 2019 has a blank field for Takayoshitoshi -> Takanofuji's old shikona.

Shikona Changes

Rank	New Shikona	Old Shikona
Ms3e	Takanofuji
Ms55w	Oginosho	Aonosho
Jd28w	Tosaeizan	Mitsumune
Jd58e	Sadatsuyoshi	Konno
Jd69e	Kochikara	Kojikara
Jd90w	Asonishiki	Nakanishi
Jd95w	Ayakaze	Tokikaze
Bg	Inanofuji	Shinshunishiki

(While I'm at it and for completeness, another Takanofuji issue was raised elsewhere the other day.)

Edit: Same old-shikona-missing issue with Raiga in Nagoya 2019.

Maybe we could get updated pictures of Meisei, Kotoeko, Ryuden, and Takanosho? Their current pictures are from their unsalaried days.

more rikishi

[code_number3 698]

Ichinojo started his career as Ms15TD on hatsu 2014, but the DB listed he has maezumo on kyushu 2013.

When a rikishi started his ozumo as a tsukedashi, is it he skip his maezumo? If yes can it be fixed (Ichinojo’s page)?

Thank you

That's a general issue in the DB, because foreigners remain banzuke-gai in their shin-deshi kensa basho, their maezumo dohyo debut is always 1 basho delayed, so they should rather be in the DB as BG instead as MZ. It just looks particularly odd with the tsukedashi, Mitoryu the same.

Yes, and i think Takakeisho should have a picture too seeing as he's a yusho winning ozeki.

On another note, i noticed the British, Hongkongese, Indonesian, Paraguyan, Sri Lankan, Taiwanese and Samoan rikishi do not have colors when the "Highlight Foreigners" option is used on the banzuke, while Bulgarians and Americans have the same color.

Kagamio has been Kagamio Hideoki since October 2018 (So Kyushu?). The database still has him as Kagamio Nanji.

Toku in "Tokushoryu" and "Tokushinho" is:  德

I noticed this in my overviews, because the pics of Tokushoryu from the NSK twitter are not properly sorted: the NSK on the official site publishes the shikona of Tokushoryu as 徳勝龍 , and thus the DB uses this, has to use it, like all papers. On twitter though - I don't know since when - the NSK posts him correctly (like on the written banzuke) as 德勝龍, with one stroke more, 德 instead of 徳

Edit: Daily has posted 1 pic with that kanji in the caption as well, another as usual

NHK on Twitter uses the correct kanji as well - maybe the NSK will change the characters also on the site for the next banzuke.

Another one with different Kanji today: Nihonyanagi - on NSK twitter 二本栁 , the papers still with 二本柳

You scare me by even noticing these. I had to look thrice...

I didn't notice - my sorting routine failed to put the pics to the proper bout, although (at first sight) the correct name was in the caption. Same with Tokushoryu, for that I found a post in this thread that mentioned the differences, so it had to be the same cause and I had to look closer.

I like the fact that you could just have accepted the praise but were too honest...

[Itachiyama 115]

I have pictures of more or less all Sekitori for uploading! Who can upload them?

[sahaven111 176]

Tamanishiki is listed as training at Murkowski-beya his entire career, even though nishonoseki wasn't a stable from 1931-1935

[sahaven111 176]

Oshoryu is listed as oshuryu.

Kakuryu should be Y1wYO not just Y1w

JK 26W Takatsukasa's profile produces an error when you switch to the Japanese version.

It says: 404 - File or directory not found.

 

Observations regarding the KABU-section: Tateyama (ex-Homarefuji) is listed without an ichimon-affiliation - thus appears at the bottom of the list.

And on a general note: The kabu-list still mentions Tatsunami-ichimon, which can be changed to Isegahama-ichimon.

The same 栁 "Yanagi" kanji is also used in Musashigawa's Yanagida (栁田) : http://sumodb.sumogames.de/Rikishi.aspx?r=12552&l=j

The "saki" variant 﨑 I mentioned before in Kizakiumi is also used in Otake's Hamasaki (濱﨑) : http://sumodb.sumogames.de/Rikishi.aspx?r=12546&l=j

[Yubinhaad 11,628]

Sandanme is missing from the Day 2 torikumi at the moment, and somehow Koba's shikona change to Mifuneyama didn't register on the English side.

[Naganoyama 5,889]

I assume it has something to do with the appearance of sandanme tsukedashi Fukai in the first bout.

[orandashoho 720]

While Sandanme is now listed on the Day 2 torikumi, the Sandanme Day 2 results have still not been incorporated in the column with the rikishi win/loss totals. The Sandanme rikishi that had their bouts on Day 2 still have a "0 wins, 0 losses" result.
