This template is used in the Sumo record box that lists the makuuchi record of a sumotori. It presents the record for a single basho, and should be inserted between transclusions of {{Sumo record year start}} and {{Sumo record year end}}. See the documentation for Template:Sumo record box start for an example layout.
There are four forms for calling this template:
- No parameters — Fills in box with centered x to indicate basho that have not yet occurred or which occurred prior to the rikishi's promotion to makuuchi.
{{Basho}}
- One parameter — Indication that rikishi did not participate in basho due to demotion or injury:
- {{Basho |JURYO}}
- {{Basho |MAKUSHITA}}
- {{Basho |SANDANME}}
- {{Basho |JONIDAN}}
- {{Basho |JONOKUCHI}}
- {{Basho |BANZUKEGAI}}
- {{Basho |KYUJO}} (injured)
- {{Basho |EMPTY}} (equivalent to first form)
- Named parameters — Basho record:
- {{Basho |rank= |r-no= |tozai= |win= |loss= |absent= |yusho= |sansho1..8= }}
