Kyokutenho
editIf it had been anyone else I probably would have taken it out:) You are correct of course that he is a Japanese citizen whereas all the others since Tochiazuma – Asa, Hakuho, Harumafuji, Osh and Baruto – are not, so it is perhaps notable, but as I believe the JSA always goes by the birthplace listed on the banzuke in regard to whether someone is 'foreign' or not it is a little confusing. But it's not a big deal, I'm not going to take it out now and I doubt anyone else will. I'm delighted for Tenho of course but I can't help thinking that a Kisenosato or Tochiozan victory would have been great for sumo and they've both blown a chance that may not come again for quite some time. Saw your new articles, excellent as always, and the fighting style sections will be added shortly. --Pawnkingthree (talk) 11:12, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
- Just as a follow up, interesting that this article in the Japan Times also highlights the issue. I've added it as a reference.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 11:34, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
Active kinboshi earners
editNice addition there. Interesting that Wakanosato and Kyokutenho have earned only two kinboshi each despite both being around for donkey′s years. Just makes you appreciate all the more what a marvellous record Akinoshima′s is.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 02:04, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
- I fixed the sansho list for you - sorry for the delay. Looks good - the only comment I would make is that when you do the sort for the individual prizes it doesn't necessarily show who has the most. Say for example a wrestler had four fighting spirit prizes but no others; he wouldn't appear in the table at all but really he should be at number three for fighting Spirit. Of course, the same is true of my "List of sumo record holders" table as well.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 00:00, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
Ōsunaarashi Kintarō
editHi FourTildes,
I just wanted to draw your attention to [1] photo of Oosunaarashi which I took last Friday and uploaded to Commons. As the article is still "yours" in a way, I would not like to change the photo you included without asking you, but find the other one a bit more personal. Phlyz (talk) 15:54, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
- Hi, the only other photos I had taken of him I would have had to cut out people standing next to him etc. posing, so I snapped that one on the dohyo because I knew I was going to make an article. The one you have shows him standing by himself and it is higher quality so let's use it. I'll put it in if you don't mind. FourTildes (talk) 21:31, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
- To be honest I had to cut out one of the enavitable admiring old ladies as well... ;-) Go ahead an put it in!Phlyz (talk) 12:36, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
Basho not held
editI see you've been changing the Xs in the tourney table to Not Held, which is good, but unfortunately you've been adding explanatory notes to the top of the table when there is already one at the bottom (which I don't remember doing actually, maybe Kaiketsu did it?), causing a lot of duplication. I started removing some of them but rapidly got bored:)--Pawnkingthree (talk) 01:06, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
- Great work putting all the pre 1958 tourney tables. A have a question about some changes though - why not complete records for Wakakoma Kenzo, Kanenohana Takeo, Iwakaze Kakutaro and Tochihikari Masayuki? It seems odd to me to lose information.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 22:27, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

editEdits to rikishi article
editIn the course of making some minor edits, somehow this article got mangled ;-) and I don't want to mess up the work you have been doing. Please look at the following edit diff:
http://en.wiki.x.io/w/index.php?title=Rikishi&diff=561148407&oldid=561136424
This is supposed to be me, but in fact I only intentionally altered the top couple of paragraphs. So how did "Lifestyle of rikishi" turn into "...promotion and demotion..." - I have no idea. I will revert back to your last version (as best I can), then make the changes I intended: please check the result. Thanks! Imaginatorium (talk) 04:31, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
Musashigawa stable
editI see that an admin has deleted Musashigawa stable, which was previously a redirect to Fujishima stable (2010), so you can redo your article on the new Musashigawa stable. But Musashigawa stable should really be a disambiguation page, like Fujishima stable, as both incarnations are likely to be searched for under that name. I hope you′d consider putting your article at Musashigawa stable (2013) instead.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 01:43, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
Hey FourTildes, I sent an email to the Musashigawa stable, don't know if I'll get a reply though, asking if the satble is a brad new stable or a continuation of the old one. Also, should Mienoumi Tsuyoshi be included as the 1980 to 2010 owner of the stable, as per tradition. Or maybe you accidentally deleted that section by copying and pasting. Either way, what do you think. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Leveni (talk • contribs) 04:40, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
Hey again. I've mentioned your name in an article I wrote on the admin's board, hope you don't mind. But, I feel it wrong that your original article was removed. [The link is here.]--Leveni (talk) 06:18, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
A cup of tea for you!
editYour article Tokyo Camii has been reviewed. I find it very useful. You deserve a cup of tea! Vanjagenije (talk) 17:41, 27 July 2013 (UTC) |
Osunaarashi translation, and...
editi went ahead and moved that translation into the lead paragraph~ after having read through the article now a couple of times i notice a few things i'd like to point out to you, seeing as you seem to be monitoring the article... all about the name:
- mention of his name hops between "Osunaarashi" and "Osuna-arashi" (with and without the dash)...
- also hops between spelling it with "O" and "Õ" (with and without the length-dash over the O)...
- also hops between referring to him by his sumo name and his birth name... (should use the name he's publicly credited as)
- at least once refers to him by the nickname (Budi?)... (isnt such informal referencing within the article a no-no?)
the spelling used in an article's title is what i've been taught to use within the article itself; the current title is WITH the bar over the Õ and withOUT the dash... you might want to give some consideration to WHICH is best for posterity~ NOTE: Japan Times reports his name WITHOUT EITHER; no bar, no dash =you may actually wanna consider moving/renaming the article to reflect JT's official spelling?? just advising as per encyclopedic formatting~
one more thing though: i'm not sure if theres special precedence for sumo names but... usually for famous people who are known by different names, the article TITLE is their ring/stage/pen-name, but THEN: the first usage of their name in the article is their BIRTH name followed by the "better known by/as ring/stage/pen-name" instead of the way youve got Osunaarashi credited in the first sentence... as i said, i'm not too sure if this should be the case for sumo but i've been corrected in the past when dealing with entertainer articles~ that might require ALL sumo articles to be re-formatted that way: for one, i noticed the Gagamaru article currently names him in the first sentence same as Osunaarashi~
!dont mean to bog you down with details! hope its helpful; let me know if i can assist any way in the future~ Japanglish (talk) 05:03, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
- THANKS for your reply FT; you seem to know what youre doing, didnt mean to interrupt~ i'm a fan, often attend Tokyo bashos & refer to wikipedia for background & facts which is how i'm aware of this & the other articles... i hop around on wikipedia contributing quality control on Japanese topics; keep up the good work~ Japanglish (talk) 03:54, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
Sumo pics
editDid some searching in Japanese + the fact that anything from 1956 and backwards is free. The US Library of Congress has some really nice, high resolution, ukiyo-e woodcuts as well. Kaiketsu (talk) 12:56, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
Sumo - good article
editThe content is very good but whole sections have little or no references. That I think is the reason it lost its GA ranking in the first place. I actually think that the references listed could cover all sections but they would have to be placed. If that could be done it would be a simple mater to put the article up for GA which has the added bonus of critiquing what else is wrong.Peter Rehse (talk) 11:11, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
Re:More records
editThose are interesting tables, but I do wonder if it would make the article too bloated if they were included. (I actually don't think the "most tournaments to reach makuuchi" record should really be there either, as it's scarcely a record one would be proud of, but that was an indulgence of mine.) Would be OK in a Sanyaku article though. Maybe one should be spun out from the glossary? I also wonder if rikishi from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries should actually even be included, as they're not really comparable. Should we possibly restrict such tables to the six-tournament-a-year era, as the NSK do (I think)? BTW thanks for today's update - extraordinary that Hakuho has reached a figure in 13 years that took Akinoshima 23 years! Just shows how dominant he has been.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 11:53, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
- Interesting that Kotonowaka holds the all-time maegashira record. Terao must be up there too. And let's not forget Kyokushuzan, who holds the record for most consecutive tournaments at maegashira following his one stint at komusubi. The tables are fine in the makuuchi article, although we will have to remember to update it every tournament (I'm assuming Hakuho is going to be around a while longer!).--Pawnkingthree (talk) 15:49, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
- I realize I am just creating more work for myself with the tables in the future, but that's okay. It's a small piece of extra work compared to the tourney tables. For some reason, I find tracking small, incremental change over time a worthy use of time. Yes, I did know Kyokushuzan's consecutive record (from the wiki article!) and it would be nice to show that somewhere. Perhaps another table! FourTildes (talk) 23:00, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
outside the box sumo topics?
editif you've got any sumo-writing-with-attitude which may not have an outlet elsewhere, checkout japanglish.org and contact us there~ best. Japanglish (talk) 06:18, 12 May 2014 (UTC)
- got your reply, thanks for taking the time~ ive been the one in contact with you; i'm OL, though it was LM who put together our sumo listings and may continue to do so... we were actually unsure as to how to refer to Kakuryu's cheap win; uwatenage didn't seem to us to be quite correct, but we ran with that in keeping with the officials decision... should we amend our listing? we'll continue coverage in July using the same daily-summary/slideshow format (you mightve noticed we were a few days late getting the page up during hatsu-basho, but now its in place) & the invitation to contribute is open at your availability... send contributors our way as well, any topics, maybe youve noticed the scope so far; we're still expanding~ best. Japanglish (talk) 00:31, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
thanks very much for the input, highly appreciated~ i'm top man on a small totem pole so if i don't catch oversights or misinfo it's readers like you who do~ amended the Ozeki typo (embarrassed that went "live"), will tend to Kakuryu timely! Japanglish (talk) 12:11, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

Kyokutenhō update
editI don't understand this update. Is it supposed to say "oldest makuuchi wrestler" instead of "first wrestler"? I also don't understand the citation, as it doesn't seem relevant and the access date is 5 years before the event in question. 129.78.68.1 (talk) 00:05, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
Hi. I replied to you question on your Talk page. ~ ~ ~ ~ (talk) 01:40, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
Tochinowaka
editJust a heads-up that I've asked on the talk page if there are any other reasons behind his sudden retirement at just 26. Obviously we don't want unsourced speculation in the article but I would really appreciate it if you could do a little digging if you have the time :) --Pawnkingthree (talk) 14:19, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
Nishonoseki stable
editI don't really have a strong opinion on the Nishonoseki stable vs Nishonoseki stable (1935) "controversy" that seems to be raging but I do think that Nishonoseki stable, which is currently a redirect, should instead be a dab page if Nishonoseki stable (1935) is going to exist. Thoughts?--Pawnkingthree (talk) 20:29, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
- So let me get this straight - the information from the old Nishonoseki stable article was cut and pasted into a new article, Nishonseki (1935) and Matsugane stable became Nishonseki (2014), and then the old Nishonoseki stable page was changed to a redirect? Is that what happened? I'm a bit confused. Right now, the revision history to the article on the original Nishonoseki stable has been lost, so that needs to be fixed.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 16:21, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
- I'm not blaming you for the page history thing by the way, it's just a consequence of an action by another user that I don't think was justified.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 16:49, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
What I decided to do was undo the cut and paste moves, and then make a formal request to move Nishonoseki stable to Nishonoseki stable (1935) at Wikipedia:Requested moves. I think this is the proper thing to do as there has been an objection. The reason for the delay is that I've not done this before and I wanted to get it right – I'm unsure, for instance, whether I need to ask for the disambiguation page to be done at the same time. This all seems rather more complicated than it needs to be :(--Pawnkingthree (talk) 02:30, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
- I have now opened the discussion - go to WP:RM or the talk page.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 20:25, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
Yes I always take an interest in what goes on round here even if I'm not editing as often and I'll back you up if necessary!--Pawnkingthree (talk) 01:51, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

- I'm sorry, you did mention it, back in July. I'd completely forgotten.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 20:41, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
- Dammit I forgot to do this AGAIN with my recent updates. I really do have a mental block on this one. Sorry.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 12:15, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
I hadn't noticed. I did notice Tiger Boy didn't. That's okay. You are thinking about it anyway. I don't mind if you wait until next time around when you are updating something. To be honest it is even more useful for checking whether or not the bio is up to date, as the career record is easier to see if it has been updated or not at a glance.

Misnomer

Template:Basho
editI know you did some work on this a while back, and I'm reluctant to start fiddling with the template before getting your opinion. I noticed when I added in Kakuryu's kyujo for this basho in the tourney template, that it shows at 0-0-0. Shouldn't it be 0-0-15? 0-0-0 should be either for cancelled tournaments or post-intai tournaments.
- I see what I did now - I just copied and pasted from the original March entry which also had "absent=0" for some reason. Thanks for clearing that up!--Pawnkingthree (talk) 12:15, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

New sumo articles
editSorry about adding those couple of articles a bit too early. I actually did see that guideline that you wrote but it was a few days after I had created the pages. I really appreciate all you and a few others have done to explain sumo in English (which is of course a much quicker read even if one does read a fair bit of Japanese). That really motivated me to add a bit of what I have learned over the last few years since I have really been becoming interested in sumo. I'm really excited to see what Mitakeumi and Shodai have been doing over the last couple years, and I was excited to have the chance to be the first to publish articles for two rikishi that I feel have great promise as well as add a picture I took of Mitakeumi that I think came out really well, but I guess I may have jumped the gun a little. I'll definitely be frequenting the sumo pages for the long term, and I hope I can stay motivated to put some effort into maintaining them as well. Cheers.Khafre78 (talk) 06:59, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
Re:New images
editI spotted them on the Commons (via a ja wiki article) and most of them seem to be scanned from a June 1961 issue of "Sumo" magazine a few months ago. I think 50 years after publication is public domain. 1961 is too early for Wajima of course but I will keep looking.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 13:26, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

Asahiyama stable pictures

Locations in heya articles
editWas just browsing Chiganoura stable when I noticed this edit of yours. Interesting idea - I'd not thought of adding a specific section for that info, although some articles do mention the heya's location. I put in a little bit about Takanohana stable's move just today, coincidentally. Have you added any other location sections?--Pawnkingthree (talk) 19:54, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
I noticed some years back when I was doing the systemitIzing work that Asashosakari started, that many of the Japanese articles had such info so I started integrating some. To be honest I thought I'd done all of them - but did not obviously. Yes, several heya articles do have a location and access section. We can add more. I don't mind helping if it's easier for me to do. FourTildes (talk) 20:44, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Is it too soon....
editTo give this guy an article??? The new Mainoumi!--Pawnkingthree (talk) 12:58, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
- Yeah, I saw a few of his bouts on You Tube and he already has an article on ja wiki, but he only scored 4-11 so he’s going back to makushita. He did equal the fastest rise record I think, but he’s really small - makes Ishiura look like Ichinojo... His time will come though. Daimami is definitely deserving, and I’ll get round to doing Yutakayama soon if no-one else does. --Pawnkingthree (talk) 22:17, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
Autopatrolled
editHi. I’m amazed you don’t have the autopatrolled flag. You’ve created so many valid articles over the years. Having it means your articles are automatically approved and it takes the burden off new page patrollers. You should go to Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Autopatrolled and ask for it. I would ask on your behalf, but for a weird technical reason (see Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2018 April 22) I can’t, it seems. --Pawnkingthree (talk) 20:18, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
- Pawnkingthree, I'm guessing that's because when you clicked the "add request" button you replaced
REVISIONUSER
withFourTildes
, creating{{subst:FourTildes}}
, when you should have instead replaced it with simplyFourTildes
. If I'm totally off, then... I have no idea why it borked. Primefac (talk) 00:13, 30 April 2018 (UTC) (please ping on reply)- Primefac - Yes, that’s exactly what it was. I tried a few different things and then gave up. Didn’t realize I could have just done the plain user name.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 00:22, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
Does that mean you have registered me or whatever the term would be PK3? If you haven't feel free as you know what to do now. :) FourTildes (talk) 09:19, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
Sumo record tables
editI do apologize for the errors with prizes that have resulted from my changes. The reason I was making these changes to your tables was that I was actively working on fixing Lint errors (WP:Linter); specifically, ones where tables hadn't been correctly set up. These both caused the table to not appear properly, and would cause issues with Wikipedia trying to move to HTML5. By having two sumo box starts but only one ending, this resulted in there being an extra table starting tag, thus causing the Lint error.
If need be, if you can point me to the sumo record end I should have used, I can try to correct my mistakes and make sure people aren't misled by the incorrect prize information. Wsan2 (talk) 20:31, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

Update
editYour previous message got reverted so I added the “in use” template to List of active sumo wrestlers. You can go ahead and make your update. Just to be clear, I won’t be doing it :) -- Pawnkingthree (talk) 23:27, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
Didn't want anyone beating me to it. It used to be I was the only git who could be bothered! Heh. FourTildes (talk) 23:43, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
Enho
editHey, do you know how to transfer files to the Commons? I cam across this photo of Endo which is on the Japanese Wikipedia but not on the Commons (as far as I can tell). I figured we'd be having an article on him before too long. We did have an image before but it was deleted.-- Pawnkingthree (talk) 18:43, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
- You mean EnHo maybe? Heh. I thought only I did that. It is strange. I didn't think it was possible to only have an image on one language wiki. Couldn't figure it out. You could copy it to wiki commons as it is public domain, but that's an iffy issue. the uploader's page says he understand high level English. You might try putting a message on his page. I assume the pic of Enho that was erased wasn't mine? FourTildes (talk) 09:20, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- No it wasn’t one of yours, it was this one. I have seen files on the English Wikipedia that are eligible to be transferred and there is a procedure for it, see Wikipedia:Moving files to Commons. But obviously my lack of Japanese makes it difficult for me figure out how to duplicate that on the ja wiki :) I’ll contact the uploader as you suggest. -- Pawnkingthree (talk) 13:06, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- So I got no reply from the uploader, WhiteMon. I don't think he's very active. I even asked on the ja wiki page for non-Japanese speakers, but no response there either. Very frustrating. Now Enho's in makuuchi I bet it won't be long before he gets an article.-- Pawnkingthree (talk) 17:30, 30 April 2019 (UTC)
- Update: should have been more patient. It's now been transferred.-- Pawnkingthree (talk) 19:24, 15 May 2019 (UTC)

DYK for Enhō Akira
editOn 18 August 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Enhō Akira, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that sumo wrestler Enhō Akira is 50 kilograms (110 lb) lighter, and 15 centimetres (6 in) shorter, than most of his top division opponents? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Enhō Akira. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Enhō Akira), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Table of contents for Sumo Stable pages
editHi FourTildes, You probably don't remember me, but back in 2007 I also started to create a lot of Sumo Stable pages. I was thinking about creating a table of contents on the left hand side of all the sumo stables as a quick reference guide for all the stables. Just thought it would be good to get more input on the idea. I thinking of consolidating info like the founding dates, current stable master, current makunouchi rikishi, and other info that you might think important for the quick reference guide. What do you think? I also sent this same message to Pawnkingthree. Leveni (talk) 01:53, 18 April 2021 (UTC)

Stables pics
editHi Four! Just a note to thank you for the recent additions of images to the stable articles! It's a big job and I'm sure the whole WP appreciates it massively. 💪 I was thinking about another thing, do you still have the image of the yoshiba chanko ? I still have in mind the project of rewriting the article on Miyagino stable. - OtharLuin (talk) 11:21, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hi there. Maybe 10 years ago I took it upon myself to get a pic of every heya for wiki - it seemed very daunting until of course I did them all in a year and half or so - but now I am pretty lazy about updating when changes come along. Um, did I post a yoshiba chanko pic somewhere? Don't quite remember that. FourTildes (talk) 13:05, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
- I don't remember if it was you I discussed it with, I'm not so sure now... I had asked a twitter user if he could upload an image of yoshiba chanko (because that's the old building at the time of Yoshibayama's Miyagino stable) but he never got back to me even though he agreed... - OtharLuin (talk) 13:16, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
