State Shinto
I've listed this article for peer review because I've made major contributions to the article, and believe it could be ready for a re-assessment. I'd like to get the article to Featured, or at least "Good Article" status. Suggestions on formatting, content, needs, and other issues noted by experienced editors would be welcome.

 * Thanks for putting this article up for review, . It's clear you have put a lot of work into this detailed article. I would recommend a few things, but that said these are only my thoughts:

I hope this helps on your path to good article status. Cheers, --Tom (LT) (talk) 23:10, 30 January 2016 (UTC)
 * This article would benefit from an initial 'overview' section that explains what shinto is as a religion, what its major tenets and practices are, and maybe a small historical overview.
 * The lead would benefit from expansion
 * The article is very well supported with sources, which is great
 * The details in the article are very interesting and well above "broad", which is wonderful.
 * I find the images relevant to the article
 * Thanks for the advice, Tom (LT)! I tend to like short leads, but I will explore ways to develop it. And yes, some additional background will be useful - I'm working a bit on the main Shinto article, so I can create a summary while I am at it. Thanks again! ---Owlsmcgee (talk) 04:12, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
