Great Buddha of Kamakura (Wikipedia)

The Great Buddha of Kamakura's Wikipedia article is a community-edited encyclopedia entry, covering the bronze Amida Buddha at Kotoku-in, its construction beginning in 1252, the loss of its housing hall to storms and a tsunami, and its status as a Japanese National Treasure. Its strength is that these are the kind of stable, documentable construction and conservation history facts a general reference handles well. Its limit is that a claim about the specific Pure Land Buddhist theology behind the Amida Buddha image needs a source examining that directly, not this general overview.
