Articles conventions

{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Japan/Navbox}} WikiProject:Sumo shares many conventions with its wiki-cousin WikiProject Japan (see opposite) →

{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Sumo/Conventions}} Beyond these writing conventions, all record boxes, regardless of if a wrestler is active or retired, should always have all slots properly filled in with basho boxes in order to maintain visual consistency.
