I will review this. Should have comments up in a few days. Sasata ( talk) 20:55, 27 June 2012 (UTC)

I've made a number of minor tweaks to the article, and added several links–feel free to revert anything you don't agree with. I think the article meets GA criteria: the prose is fine and complies with the MoS; the sources I checked confirm the article citations; no issues with close paraphrasing/plagiarism; both images have proper licenses. I suspect that consultation with Takashima's work would help to fill out some details, but as it is now the article certainly meets the "broad coverage" criterion required for GA. Happy to promote the article now. Cheers, Sasata ( talk) 06:18, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
Have you considered adding dates associated with names and periods of Japanese history? This would help readers not familiar with Japan out tremendously.
Have you considered reorganizing the History section into chronological order, and breaking it up by broad period? The section lends itself to that treatment. À la:
Divination section: the practice of ishi-ura is an established fact, as evidenced by the literature. I'd reword/remove the sentence "The prevalence of the stones in Shinto shrines and temples has led to speculation that rock-lifting was used for divining the future" to maybe "The prevalence of the stones in Shinto shrines and temples across Japan is associated with divination practices involving the use of chikaraishi."
