Gallery

Highland, the photos were chosen to show what a tahōtō looks like, not for their importance as NT. In the original photos, the tahōtō is shown clearly, in different colors and "ken" sizes. The photos you chose are small, dark and not very useful. If you want to add a gallery of NT, how about creating a Tahōtō National Treasures category in Wikimedia Commons and add it at the bottom of the article with a commonscat tag? - Frank (Urashima Tarō) (talk) 00:30, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Frank. I understood your feelings. And, I want to esteem it to its maximum. However, Kita-in's Tahōtō doesn't have even the value of Japan's Important Cultural Property (,and Yoda-ji's is not Cultural Property). Kita-in's Tahōtō is a cultural asset of the prefecture. I think that it is unnatural that it mixes with the National Treasure.

If you hope you paste colorful Tahōtō there, I recommend Sagami-ji's Tahōtō (Japan's Important Cultural Property) or Kimii-dera's Tahōtō (Japan's Important Cultural Property). --663highland (talk) 16:11, 10 November 2010 (UTC)16:39, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WP:Japan Assessment Commentary

I assessed the article as C-class, with the following recommendations for improvement:

References: A reference is needed for the sentences mentioning the status of National Treasure, Important Cultural property, etc.
Structure: The Lead is as large as all the rest of the article. It should be broken up and labelled "History", "Design", or whatever may be appropriate.
Accessibility: The term daito is not really defined or explained. This should be done as a quick gloss on first mention, with elaboration in its section. The role of Kukai as founder of the Shingon sect should be defined on the first mention of the name. Elaborate a little on the role of Shingon in Japanese history and in Japanese Buddhism. Good luck!
