Facts
Assessment
Reliability TierReliability tier 3: a Wikipedia entry, written and revised by unnamed volunteer editors, suited to an uncontested, easily checked point about a Shinto deity rather than a disputed claim. NotesCrowd-sourced tertiary reference. Used here only for the specific, checkable list of shrines enshrining Omoikane, Chichibu Shrine foremost among them, and the plain contemporary fact that visitors pray to him there for academic and examination success, not for any deeper doctrinal or mythological claim beyond what the academic Shinto sources also cited independently support. 1 Citation
