Since the man goes by the name of Masaru Hanada these days, should the title of the page be changed? XinJeisan 14:35, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

I thought his birth name was 下山　勝則 (Katsunori Shimoyama) and his ring name as a sumo wrestler was 若乃花 (waka no hana), and his current name as an Oyagata is 間垣　勝晴 (Magaki Katsuharu). I want to get this straight before making any changes.

You're thinking of Wakanohana Kanji II. All these Wakanohanas! It does get confusing. Pawnkingthree 10:48, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Oops, you're right. Thanks for that.
