To-Do

Tamawashi Ichirō
- Add a bit about nodowa in fighting style (cite Sumo Prime Time?)
- Find more sources for fighting style section. Lots of unsupported assertions in there.
- add this source to Consecutive appearance record section https://hochi.news/articles/20260311-OHT1T51293.html?page=1
Keep up with Talk:Gravity sewer#Proposal: Merge this article into Sanitary sewer
Create a pipe section diagram for use in invert level
- Possibly also for use in pipe or gravity sewer
- source for definition of springline: https://florida.concretepipe.org/springline
Submit Arashifuji for Did you know? within 7 days of publishing
- Submitted 2026-08-20 highlighting his Ninja Warrior appearance.
Hunt down pictures for wrestler bios
Write up a fighting style section for Wakanosho
Create a Nabatame article. Should be plenty of news about him since he's popular.
- Some sources:

Improve Kimarite
- Add Tomokaze for Hatakikomi in addition to Aoiyama? Tomokaze used it 43% of wins so far. Would be interesting if I can prove he has the highest rate of use of any rikishi. Ask on sumoforum how to check.
  - He definitely has the highest, but I haven't found any articles to back me up. Can't use original research so this may be a dead end.
Glossary of sumo terms
- Add entry about tsuki(突き)/oshi(押し)
Ichiyamamoto
- Add information about recent mawashi fighting.
- Expand career to current day.
- Add a bit about his shikona. iirc he added "ichi" to his family name to avoid an unlucky number of strokes
  - Middy says there was an Abema interview where Ichiyamamoto said he wanted to be the number 1 Yamamoto. See if I can find the interview.
Figure out where to put Rational Method and TR-55 (peak discharge models - uncalibrated)
- Start by creating a stand-alone article. Then report back to the WikiProject Engineering talk page and see if folks think it should be merged with an existing one.
- Draft:Stormwater Peak-Discharge Estimation - Wikipedia
  - Surface runoff#Measurement and mathematical modeling?
  - Runoff curve number?
  - Runoff model (reservoir)?
  - Hydrological model? more central than Runoff model (reservoir)
  - Stormwater?
- Submit for Did You Know? within 7 days of publishing
