I don't even think Smithy comes here anymore to actually notice since it has been a while since I last saw a sprite rip from him.
Anyway a sprite ripper doesn't have to rip a portrait of a character on a sheet if he or she doesn't want to or doesn't think that it is part of a sheet, if the person used tools to rip the sprites, the portraits are not usually with the sprites and are elsewhere in the ROM bundled together. If you look at the other sheets of the game section except one which was done by someone else, Smithy didn't rip the portraits on them. Also a person can submit the portraits on its own sheet or a misc sheet which many do and there are cases where a character has a portrait but doesn't have a sprite to go with it like when Ultimecia ripped Adventures of Batman and Robin (SNES), Alfred only has a portrait but no sprite.
As for the wrong character name, I think posting about it in the Errors thread is the better option so the staff can correct it.
