Chiyotasuke 286 Posted January 15 The latest Ryogoku's change to 梶之助 Kajinosuke of given name kanji is missing in kanji form. Source https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/両国梶之助#改名歴 And misspellings on the English side: Hanaoseto -> Hananoseto correct Mururaniwa -> Muroraniwa correct Yariryuu -> Yariryu correct 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yorikiried by fate 2,028 Posted January 18 Maybe it's a known thing/featureoid etc. but today I noticed that in the rikishi win lists (English version) the shikona of some dudes (who had name changes at one or more points) are not the most current ones. See Kotozakura for instance, who is listed as Kotonowaka. Just the heads up, if this behaviour is not intended. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chiyotasuke 286 Posted January 20 On the Haru 1913 banzuke, Umegatani should be the haridashi-yokozuna not Tachiyama, they're switched in the DB (seems like it was hositori's mistake originally). Due to this, it seems that their shikona given names swapped for that basho too (This is what made me investigate). I found the real banzuke on this site https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e1159595558 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They really should adopt bullfighting names for the kimarite on some of these dodges. The word hikkake doesn't have that much flair. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BTW, it's probably almost irrelevant, but the fix didn't propagate from the DB proper to the games. https://chaingang.sumogames.de/Bout.aspx?B=113571 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryoshishokunin 288 Posted January 26 For reasons unclear, the branchout of Hidenoyama-beya isn't noted on the kabu history for Hidenoyama (or for moto-Kotoshogiku). I'm not sure if other events are also missing from the kabu portion of the db. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure if other events are also missing from the kabu portion of the db. Fixed that for you I missed some of the Q4 developments in kabu land and just need to finally catch up. Thanks for reminding me... Edit: After a quick look into it it seems that everything from Hidenoyama branchout on is missing. The last change before that was Aoiyama->Iwatomo, which is in the list.

Chiyotasuke 286 Posted January 27 Inami beat Michihaya in 2024.01 maezumo but but their hoshitori shows the opposite happening. Because of this, a query shows Michihaya as the only rikishi with 4 wins in maezumo.

rokudenashi 323 Posted February 1 (edited) A couple of given names for foreign rikishi to add. If I spot any more I'll append to this post. Ikazuchidō - 根利 (ねり, Neri) Gōseizan - 穣 (みのる, Minoru) General errata... Kotokonno's real surname on his English profile is listed as Kotokonno - should just be Konno Edited Wednesday at 15:14 by rokudenashi 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asashosakari 19,319 Posted Wednesday at 22:34 Wakanoyama retired in August 2005 according to our kabu data for him, and therefore should not be listed as 0-0-7 for the September tournament.
