Kuni-yuzuri

[edit]

Created by Pat457 (talk) and Yunshui (talk). Nominated by Yunshui (talk) at 13:34, 13 March 2017 (UTC).

  • Expanded within set time, long enough, within policy. Hook is cited, verified and interesting. QPQ done. This has no issues so it should be good to go as it is. Well done! JAGUAR  20:57, 13 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Would you mind pointing out the place in the article where the hook fact appears? Is it this sentence: Scholars point out Yasumaro's clan, the Ō, being distantly related to the clan of the kuni-no-miyatsuko of Shinano, the authorities set up by the Yamato court to govern the area, as one possible motivation for inventing a new god based on the legends, the religious practices and the history of Suwa region. BTW this sentence is not grammatically correct; it's either lacking a few words or has a few too many words. Yoninah (talk) 22:13, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
  • The text has changed quite a bit since the nomination was made - the sentence the Izumo kuni-yuzuri cycle has often been interpreted as a mythic retelling and justification of the rise to power of the Yamato state and its subjugation of other clans and tribes is still referenced to the same source, though, and still (IMHO) justifies the hook.

  • OK, thank you. Restoring tick per Jaguar's review. Yoninah (talk) 00:17, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
