 * Reviewed: Kiyono Yasuno
 * Comment: Also reviewed Saori Ōnishi. According to this tool, I've contributed over 92% of the text on this article, so no other authors for it, really. Also, adirondackmuseumstore.com copied text from this article for two different pages, so those will show up in the copyvio detector. This hook uses several different sources, all of which are in the article. ··· 日本穣 ·  投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe ·  Join WP Japan ! 20:25, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
