- The fact that the source of the term is not identified should be included in the article, however it's the term is pretty widely used and I don't know that it's appropriate to remove it entirely. The fact of the matter is that the term does exist today, with almost 1 million Google results for "日本三大妖怪." This is folklore after all, and the definitions change over the years. If an unsourced Wikipedia edit was responsible for the widespread use of the term, that ought to be recognized as the source of the term in the article. Simply deleting the information from Wikipedia is only going to cause confusion. Osarusan (talk) 23:28, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- Low importance. This is pretty much trivia, and I feel it should be handled as such.
- This is merely top 3 list come up with by Kazuhiko Komatsu.
- Since Komatsu is an important commentator on Shuten-dōji (who closely studied it, wrote a book on it), it does somewhat increase the chance of it winding up on his best 3 list.
- It seems to me the whole section called "As yokai" was set up in a POV way to give disproportionately weight to the characterization that Shuten-dōji is an important as a "yokai".
- But there really a paucity of "as a yokai" material to back this here, since the content is mostly just a summarization of the Otogizoshi version of the legend. So the section needs to be dismantled and retooled as "Otogi bunko summary" section.--Kiyoweap (talk) 16:53, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
