I've put the news about Onosato's warning for drinking with younger wrestlers in Personal Life... as the edit summary asks, should it stay in this section or go under his career details? JRHorse (talk) 14:05, 22 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
I would say that a warning from his stablemaster is related to his career, and should be moved to the Careers section. The Personal Life section should be used for marriage, number of kids, hobbies etc that have nothing to do with sumo. Pawnkingthree (talk) 14:07, 22 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

There is some hedging in the sources, but I worry that the emphasis is misplaced on why Onosato wasn't promoted after his first three makuuchi basho (implying that the wins had to be earned at sanyaku rank).
While 8 successful "ozeki runs" of 3 tournaments starting since the tournaments expanded to 15 rounds in 1949/50 have begun while the wrestler was a maegashira (from Yoshibayama in 1951 to Tochinoshin in 2018) the real stumbling block was that after 3 tournaments Onosato was still a komosubi when only sekiwake have ever been promoted to ozeki (just as only ozeki can ever be promoted to yokozuna) since komosubi Maedayama in 1938.
Certainly there's an issue with schedule quality (in his debut basho Onosato faced almost all maegashira and was beaten by all three opponents ranked above maegashira that he faced) but it was becoming a sekiwake that made him eligible to have his wins count. 71.105.190.91 (talk) 05:56, 26 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
