Several years ago Stefan Gelow stopped updating his Makunouchi Rikishi Database site,and more recently the site has vanished from its host,
only to be found by search at web.archive.org for its old site w1.858.telia.com/~u85811045 .

I very much valued the "Gelow Numbers" he allotted to each consecutive
rikishi to attain a certain rank,but since he stopped updating this has
been continued only for the Ozeki,at the chijanofuji.com site.
The sumodb.sumogames.com lists rikishi only under their highest rank
without regard to their consecutive order in attaining ranks below on
the way.

This is an attempt to bring Gelow Numbers up to the present day.
From Chijanofuji,the Ozeki (I update for Kotoshogiku and after):
O234 Kaio
O235 Tochiazuma
O236 Asashoryu
O237 Kotooshu
O238 Hakuho
O239 Kotomitsuki
O240 Harumafuji
O241 Baruto
O242 Kotoshogiku
O243 Kisenosato
O244 Kakuryu
O245 Goeido
O246 Terunofuji
O247 Takayasu
O248 Tochinoshin
O249 Takakeisho
O250 Asanoyama
O251 Shodai

Banzuke.com has banzuke from 1757 up to May 2005 but only gives Makunouchi/Maegashira numbers (up to 1383 for Kateyama).
K-numbers and S-numbers for komosubi and sekiwake respectively
are more important to me,Gelow ended with K437 and S341 for
Miyabiyama.

I was not sure offhand how Gelow handled those whose sanyaku
debut was as a sekiwake...apparently he numbered their komosubi
debuts without regard to this.
For my purposes I am not giving them K-numbers unless
they did eventually rank as komosubi,but if they did I give
them numbers as if they became komosubi before becoming sekiwake.
In such cases,the K-number follows rather than precedes the S-number.

The World Trade Center towers MUST rise again,
at least as tall as before...or terror has triumphed.
