I'll give this one a review. Midnightblueowl (talk) 22:16, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid that I am going to have to fail this article as a GA at the present time. At present there are simply too many sentences throughout the article which lack any references. Certain sections contain few if any citations. Hopefully improvements will be made in future that will enable it to be reassessed. Midnightblueowl (talk) 22:28, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Article split?

[edit]

I'm tentatively thinking about giving Suwa-myōjin an article of its own. While the standard opinion holds that Takeminakata = Suwa-myōjin, historically there's been quite a number of conflicting myths and legends just about who Suwa-myōjin is supposed to be, not to mention that the history of the region's belief system is quite complex to be limited here, I'm proposing that the Takeminakata article be mainly devoted to the god as he appears in the Kojiki (and the Sendai Kuji Hongi), while the Suwa-myōjin article treat about other stories about the god as well as historical worship of this deity in general.

Omiwatari?

[edit]

Does omiwatari or a similar phenomenom occur on other lakes? --Nessie (talk) 03:18, 11 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, similar phenomena occur on other areas, though it is only in Suwa that the phenomenon is given a sort of religious significance as far as I know. Pat457 (talk) 05:19, 21 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
