Gansen-ji
- ... that the Japanese Buddhist temple of Gansen-ji has a 275-centimeter-tall (9.02 ft) statue of Amitābha Buddha that was created in the year 946? Source: The year created is verified on page 50 of Minamoto, Toyomune; Henderson, Harold Gould (1935). An Illustrated History of Japanese Art: "From an inscription on the inside of the head of this statue we learn that it was made in 946." The size is verified with this source: https://www.google.com/books/edition/Sculpture/6GED_E3hB4oC?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=Gansen-ji&dq=Gansen-ji&printsec=frontcover

Overall: 
@Aoidh: Good article. Though "Gansen-ji has a wooden Japanese pagoda, two stone pagodas, and a stone chamber that have each been recognized as Nationally Designated Important Cultural Property." should be cited. Also, citation 8 should have a page number. Onegreatjoke (talk) 01:57, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
- @Onegreatjoke: Thanks, I've copied the references from the subsequent sentences in that section to append to that sentence as well, and added the page number to the book (until I looked with fresh eyes I couldn't figure out how to tell what page that was). - Aoidh (talk) 03:02, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
Approve. Onegreatjoke (talk) 02:30, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
