sahaven111 83 Posted December 1, 2020 I noticed that there is a lack of pictures in some rikishi's info in even in the top division like tobizaru, and there is an old banzuke with a british rikishi and if you highlight foreigners he does not get a color. so you should fix that and bring back pictures.

The SumoDB is not a commercial site. Nobody pays for this valuable information, and it is maintained for many years by a devoted sumo fan at zero personal benefit. Against this background, I find it somewhat irritating if people demand that this person should do this or that. As for the photos: these were all personally taken by another incredibly dedicated sumo fan who unfortunately doesn‘t provide this service any longer. And unless Doitsuyama doesn‘t want to run into copyright issues by using photos from existing Websites, no easy solution is at hand. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I tried it out for Kyushu 1989, a basho I knew Hidenokuni appeared in, and it looks like it doesn't work for Taiwan either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not the best choice of basho to demonstrate that for Hidenokuni since his name and results colouring are both overwritten by the top rank and new promotion default color.

Yubinhaad 9,067 Posted December 10, 2020 I made a mistake when I was putting together last basho's maezumo results, the last two bouts in the first session (Day 3) had the rikishi on the wrong sides. I've corrected it in my post in the recruits thread. Sorry about that, the rest should be fine. Oh and speaking of last basho, it needs a name and venue change to bring it into line with Nagoya/July.

Thanks for catching that, for the record his transfer was effective as of February 1st 2020. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve always been willing to provide free images of any rikishi I’ve shot that may be missing. That’s a long standing offer. Most if not all of the tegata images were mine, as is the main page sidebar one of Shunketsu. Sumo Reference is an incredible resource and one I’ve been more than happy to contribute to whenever possible. Back in the day, with the help of the JSA museum staff (and certain booksellers) I was able to send Doitsuyama several packages stuffed with old results and data. I’m not sure what’s missing or what gaps I can fill but if Doitsuyama or those helping him maintain the site can send me a list I’ll see what what I have. 7 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yokozuna Hattorizakura 72 Posted December 25, 2020 On the Aki 2020 banzuke, Arauma is listed as mae zumo. however there were no mae zumo matches during that basho and the sole eligible rikishi (Reon) went from Bg to Jk in November. Shouldn't Arauma also be banzuke gai? or shouldn't his hatsu dohyo be 2020.11? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mt fuji 746 Posted December 30, 2020 I'm trying to add video links to bouts from November, but when I submit links and click "save video edits" at the top of the torikumi, everything disappears. Am I submitting links that need to be approved, like I just need to wait a little bit for them to show up? Has anyone here run into trouble adding video links?

Asashosakari 14,648 Posted January 7 Just noticed that yokozuna Akinoumi's article at ja.wiki states that the reading of his given name 節男 was Takao たかお for his real-life name, with the Setsuo せつお reading only used for his shikona. (That bit of info has been on the Wikipedia article unchallenged since 2004, so I would hope it's correct.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Asashosakari 14,648 Posted January 18 The Day 7 bout between Yuriki and Sadanohikari wasn't recorded correctly and their daily interim records have been wrong since then (e.g. Sadanohikari is 4-1 now but gets listed under "3 wins, 1 loss" after Day 9).

Asashosakari 14,648 Posted January 25 Would it be technically feasible to make clear in the sansho table that 2018.09 had all three sansho types not awarded, rather than looking like nothing happened at all? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asashosakari 14,648 Posted January 25 After digging deep into archive.org's copies of old SML posts, it looks like the Kyushu 1996 makuuchi playoff has the East-West assignments wrong for two of the four matches in the 5-way playoff. Official information from the original(?) 1990s era NSK site: https://web.archive.org/web/20010118182500/http://www.wnn.or.jp/wnn-t/relay/96_11/15/yusho_e.html Supported also by this contemporary account of an SML member who watched it live. Matches 1 and 3 are currently listed the other (wrong) way around on the DB. The correct order makes a lot more sense in that it would be inconceivable that Musashimaru fought his two tomoe-sen matches from different sides, as the DB currently has it. (Stewart Nelson, if you're still out there, many thanks for including that Kyokai site URL in this SML post - I think it's the only reason archive.org managed to pick it up at some point, no playoff pages from other tournament seem to be there.) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asashosakari 14,648 Posted January 25 While we're at it, Haru 1997's 4-way playoff has a similar issue, but in this case there's videographic evidence. The first match is higashi Kaio - nishi Takanohana, the DB has it the other way around. The second semi and the final are correct. Young Kaio! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
