Hi XinJeisan, welcome back. Well, we could always use help of course. The end of the current basho is coming up next Sunday, and updating the tables etc. is a much smaller job with one more hand. Also, there are a few wrestlers who have made their way up to makuuchi who don't yet have articles (though we have recently been following a 3 consecutive makuuchi appearances rule of thumb for giving a wrestler an article). You can find them easily in the
Ichimon articles, where under a description of the Ichimon, each heya would have a subsection. Have not moved on it, because it just seemed a daunting task. The List of past sumo wrestlers has grown rather long and could always use some additions. Pawnkingthree has started up a List of sumo record holders
article that is definitely worth a look and might need a few more tables he hasn't thought of. Ah, there was a point brought up (maybe by you?) that many wrestlers from before 1958 have the template tournament boxes and this leads to misleading information. We went back and reverted quite a few of these tournament tables to regular wiki tables to avoid this discrepancy. There are still a number of unchanged articles floating out there though.
These are just some ideas that came up when you asked. Feel free to pick and choose if any of these is to your liking.
One nice surprise is that our work is being emulated at Japanese wikipedia. More and more articles over there have pictures and infoboxes and our-style tournament boxes now that someone has ported the templates over there. FourTildes (talk) 20:36, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
A warm welcome back from me too. I was thinking that we could really do with an article on foreign participation in sumo, particularly with the Roho/Wakanoho controversy around. I was intending to expand the current section of the main sumo article but haven't had the time -- it could easily justify an article on its own though. That's all that springs to mind for now but I'm sure I think of other things. Regards, --Pawnkingthree (talk) 16:27, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

Over the course of a month, it has become apparent that both the parties proposing to include or not include those romanizations cannot be convinced by the arguments or guidelines brought up by the other side. Therefore, a compromise is trying to be found that will satisfy both parties.
One suggestion
on a compromise has been given already, but it has not found unanimous agreement, so additional compromises are encouraged to be suggested.
One universally accepted point was to bring more users from the affected projects in to help achieve consensus, and you were one of those
selected
in the process.
What this invitation is:
You should give feedback on the first suggested compromise and are highly encouraged to provide other solutions.
What this invitation is not:
This is not a vote on including or excluding such romanizations.
This is not a vote on compromises either.
