Talk:Tanzan Shrine

Shinto edit

This page is listed on the List of Shinto shrines. There is no content in the article itself indicating whether it has ever been used for Shinto purposes. Can anyone tell me why it might be on that list, and whether this shrine was ever used for Shinto purposes? John Carter 01:31, 11 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

As far as I can see, it is a Shinto shrine, not a Buddhist temple. --Auximines (talk) 12:43, 29 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Shinto. See: shinbutsu-shūgō / shinbutsu bunri.Prburley (talk) 19:09, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Name should start with a "D" edit

The Japanese sources I have (Daijirin, Daijisen, EDICT) all list this as Danzan, not Tanzan. Could we move this page to the appropriate title? -- Eiríkr ÚtlendiTala við mig 18:27, 12 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

It seems to be "Tanzan". See the official site. It says "談山神社(たんざんじんじゃ)"[1], " Tanzan-Jinja Shrine"[2] and url is " http://www.tanzan.or.jp". ―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 12:05, 13 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Ta, thank you. It seems this difference in reading of the kanji might be regional, in which case clearly the region of the shrine itself is the most applicable. -- Cheers, Eiríkr ÚtlendiTala við mig 07:05, 14 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
