Relationship to Hōkai-ji[edit]

Is there more detail on the relationship between Tōshō-ji and Hōkai-ji (宝戒寺)? All I have is from Mutsu Page 279 which states that Tōshō-ji was moved to the present site and renamed to Hōkai-ji. What present site is this referring to?

Will let you know. Hōkai-ji is close to Tōshō-ji. urashimataro (talk) 05:38, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

These are the temple's coordinates in Google Maps. urashimataro (talk) 08:32, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Use of Infoboxes[edit]

I've been finding it useful to use Infoboxes where possible. There are location based software programs such as Geopedia for the iPhone which is based on dbpedia that key off of the coordinates in the Infobox. Take a look at Shofuku-ji as an example and let me know what you think.

I have been using info-boxes for temples and shrines (see for example Tōkei-ji. I haven't used one here because there's no temple, just grass. But I guess one can be added. Btw, I would prefer the info-box you used if it had a space for a founder ... urashimataro (talk) 12:36, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
