This is a long and in-depth article, with much well-written and well-sourced content. However, it also contains stale citation-needed and clarification tags, and many many unsourced claims (some of which I have just tagged) as well as an entire section (Islands) that is completely unsourced. As far as I can tell the nominator has never edited the article. I conclude that the nominator did not do the appropriate pre-nomination preparation that would have made this article ready for a good article nomination, and that it is very far from meeting Good Article criterion 2 on sourcing. As such, it meets the "immediate fail" criteria for good article nominations. But with some more careful attention to proper sourcing of all claims in the article (including checking the existing sources for accuracy, something that probably needs a native speaker of Japanese), I think it could be brought to a nominable state. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:03, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
