  • Comment: I'm not exactly sure why this is on Simple English Wikipedia since they also have SIGCOV as one of the notability guidelines. Regardless, the single source here fails WP:SIGCOV as the source seems to basically just be a database listing of various Japanese shrines. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:53, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
