== Japanese name ==
What on earth is the rationale behind this renaming?  The [http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%BC%8A%E5%8B%A2%E7%A5%9E%E5%AE%AE Japanese name] is "Ise-jingu", no ''dai'' in sight, and on Google "Ise Shrine" whups "Grand Shrine of Ise" by a margin of 780 to 54,000.  Reverting. [[User:Jpatokal|Jpatokal]] 02:38, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

:The official name of Ise Shrine is only "Jingu". Jingu has some common names as "Ise-no-Jingu" (伊勢の神宮), "Dai-Jingu" (大神宮), "Ise jingu" (伊勢神宮) and so on. "Ise-no-Jingu" means "Shrine of Ise",and "Dai" means grand. [[User:N yotarou|N yotarou]] 17:37, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

==Expansion of this article==

For such an important shrine, there is surprisingly little information here, so I've been trying to expand it with a bit of the history of the shrine and its structure. If anyone wants to help out, especially with layout issues, it would be much appreciated. The original overview has been left untouched, so there may be a doubling-up of some info. I also hope to go down to the shrine in the next week or 2 and take some photos. I'll be there for New Year's eve and get some good photos from that to expand the article even more. [[User:Ka-ru|Ka-ru]] 07:13, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

: Good luck -- you'll need it.  The Ise Shrine is rather frustrating photographic subject, because it's not possible to get within viewing distance of the main buildings...! [[User:Jpatokal|Jpatokal]] 10:12, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

==Bogus Chronology==

The article suggests that "The design of Ise Shrine dates back to before the introduction of Buddhism and Chinese influence on architecture". The establishment of the Ise Shrine was in 690 CE, but the oldest surviving Buddhist temple in Japan (the Horyuji temple near Nara) dates from 670 CE. (Actual dates put it at 607 CE) Anyone have a source saying differently?  <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/128.2.247.85|128.2.247.85]] ([[User talk:128.2.247.85|talk]]) 13:31, 2 October 2007 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:Agreed. Looking into it, the 690 date (actually 692) is the first rebuilding of the shrine. I believe the section in question is supposed to imply the style pre-dates the direct China-influenced style of Buddhist temples. It really is poorly written and needs to be tidied up to be clearer and to be referenced. I've done some tidying up, but more is needed. If I get time, I'll try and do more. [[User:Ka-ru|Ka-ru]] 02:22, 5 October 2007 (UTC) You may come across information stating that the daughters of both Emperor Sujin and Suinin were given the responsibility of finding a place for the three treasures. It was the daughter of the latter Emperor (Emperor Suinin) who founded Ise. His traditional dates are 29 BCE to 70 CE, therefore the dates of Ise being established date back approximately 2,000 years. 

::Okay, I've finished updating the section on architecture as well as cleaning up the establishment of the shrine section. It should be clear now that, although the shrine building may not pre-date the first Buddhist temple (though they were within 10 years of each other), the style of the building draws from pre-Buddhist traditional Japanese building methods. I hope this resolves the problem. Thanks for pointing it out. [[User:Ka-ru|Ka-ru]] 03:00, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

:::I'm sorry but I think there're some mistranslations in "www.isejingu.or.jp".

=== Sacred Mirror ===
There is only one national treasure in Ise shrine (Jingu-shicho, not Naiku [http://www.ise-kanko.jp/html/bunkazai/kuni.html]). 玉篇巻 is [[Makimono]], not mirror. And "Sacred Mirror" ([[ja:八咫鏡]] and etc.) is not a national treasure. --[[User:N yotarou|N yotarou]] 18:16, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
:Why isn't the mirror a [[national treasure]]? It should be. If Israel still had the [[Ark of the Covenant]], it would probably be a national treasure (although I'm not sure about whether Israel designates national treasures). We honor the [[Constitution]] and [[Declaration of Independence]] with a federal facility, and Britain exhibits similar diligence with the [[Magna Carta]] and [[Stone of Scone]].

::And, of course, Amaterasu's Mirror is honored with the shrine itself, isn't it? So why not make it a National Treasure? THOUGH, the Mirror is part of the Three Regalia of Japan and it is said who possess these three items is the most powerful person in Japan. Understand, that these items are inherited and not 'possessed' because they are all influenced with 'kami'. They can all only be looked upon by the bloodline of the Gods.

==Ise/Shima Province==

I've reverted references to Ise and Shima provinces made by [[User:N yotarou|N yotarou]] for the following reasons: Firstly Naiku is in the southern part of [[Ise, Mie|Ise City]], not [[Ise Province]]. Ise Province no longer exists (it forms part of Mie Prefecture), and the southern part of Ise Province was around the city of Kumano, over 100km from Naiku. Secondly, the 123 additional shrines and sanctuaries are located in the vicinity of Naiku and Geku (ie, Ise City), as mentioned in the sourced Ise Jingu website. Also, [[Shima Province]] no longer exists and is therefore not appropriate for describing the current location of the Shrine. [[User:Ka-ru|Ka-ru]] 03:47, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

::Unfortunately, my Japanese isn't good enough to easily read the above, so it will take me maybe too much time to do so. Thank you for the part-English-Japanese comment you left on your talk page. From your talk page, it seems you are saying the following:

:: (1) "Ise" was orginally used to mean Ise Province, and that using "Ise" might mean Ise Shrine or Ise City.

:: (2) Naiku and Geku are in Ise City, but other shrines are in the areas surrounding Ise City, such as Matsusaka City, Toba City, Watarai-gun and Taki-gun. Also, "shrines and sancuaries" should just be "shrines". Also, the shrine of Shinojima island is in Aichi Prefecture, so not all the associated shrines are in Mie Prefecture.

:: I agree. I will change it to show both those facts.

:: (3) Uji is the city area of Ise, or the southern part of "Ise Province", and that Naiku is in the mountainous area "south of Uji", so "southern Ise City" is not accurate and "Uji" and "province" are both improper. (?)

:: Yes. On the map, Naiku is actually in the center of the area marked "Ise City", not in the south. But Naiku is south of the city center. As shown on maps, Naiku is located in the area of 宇治浦田 town. This should also be fixed in the artice.

::I am looking forward to the list of shrines that you are making. Thank you for your hard work.[[User:Ka-ru|Ka-ru]] 02:07, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

:Hello, I think I've completed [[User talk:N yotarou/list|the list]]. May I put it into the Ise Shrine article? Or make another article?

:(1) Yes, I think only "Ise" is no good.
:(2) Many shrines of Ise Shrine are in Ise city, but only in Ise city or Watarai-gun or Ise province. There are no shrines of Ise Shrine in Shinojima of Aichi prefecture, but tehre is a facility of Ise Shrine with a Torii to make dried sea bream. I and perhaps many people think it is a holly place. Before Meiji period, Shinojima was among to Ise or Shima province.
:(3) Naiku is in Uji-Tachi-cho (宇治館町), not Uji-Urata (宇治浦田). "Naiku is in Uii" is not wrong, but I think Geku must be written "in Yamada" in that case, and "Uji" is no good if "Ise province" is no good because Uji is not exist same as "Ise province" officially since (perhaps) Meiji period. --[[User:N yotarou|N yotarou]] 15:18, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

* Why was this article's name changed from '''Ise Shrine''' to '''Ise Jingu''' without any discussion here? Yes, the shrine's name in Japanese is '''Ise Jingu''', but it is known in English as '''Ise Shrine''' (or '''Ise Grand Shrine'''), and this is the English version of Wikipedia. The article is now inconsistent, as the shrine is still referred to as '''Ise Shrine''' throughout the article. It should either be changed completely, or not at all. My opinion leans toward leaving the article title with its English name (that is, reverting the article back to its original name). What do other people think? [[User:Ka-ru|Ka-ru]] ([[User talk:Ka-ru|talk]]) 01:34, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

* Ise Jingu is a formal name. It is not called Ise Shrine. The -jingu that is usually attached to another shrine in this case is a formal title due to the shrines status. There has been lots of discussion, you have missed it. It may be formally called also just "Jingu" due to it being the highest status shrine in Japan. Translating the word Jingu into english is not an option, it is called "Ise Jingu". There are lots of Ise Shrines, and this is not not one of them, it is the head of them. The main argument that the suffix should not be removed from a head shrine is that frequently there are branch shrines and they are not all the same. The suffix denotes the head shrine vs the branch shrines. The western naming convention is translationally innacurate. There are significant differences between -tiasha (which is used alone means Izumo Taisha), -jingu (imperial Shrines), -jinja (Jinja Honcho associated shrines), and others. The head of all the Shrines is "Ise Jingu" not Ise shrine. The Vatican is capitalized for a reason. This shrine does not have an English Name - see [[http://www.isejingu.or.jp/english/|Ise Jingu English Site]]. As you can see - it is called "Isejingu" or "Ise Jingu" but never Ise Shrine. [[User:Takashi Ueki|Takashi Ueki]] ([[User talk:Takashi Ueki|talk]]) 01:59, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

=== Collaboration ===
:It would help the discussion if you pointed us in the direction of the "lots of discussion you have missed", as you would think that discussion would have taken place here before the changes were made. The English name is "Ise Shrine" with a capital "S" for shrine (as in "The main shrine in Ise"), not "Ise shrine" with a little "s" meaning one of possibly many shrines in Ise, so that part of your argument is inaccurate. The main argument comes down to whether "Ise Shrine" is the main name in English, or "Ise Jingu". Yes, I know in Japanese it is often called just "Jingu", and I know the homepage of the shrine says "jingu", but there is also plenty of evidence of "Ise Shrine" being used as the accepted English name. Having lived in Ise for 4 years myself, I can tell you that both names are used there in an English context. As has been mentioned above, "Ise Shrine" outranks "Ise Jingu" in usage in Google. Also, using my university academic databases, I found that the term "Ise Shrine" outnumbers "Ise Jingu" 4 to 1 in recorded English sources.
:Taking all of this into account, there seems to have been no reason to change the name of this article without first holding a discussion here and reaching consensus. Until consensus is reached, the article should remain with the original name, "Ise Shrine", which it has had for over 5 now (since the article was created). If we do later agree on a change, every other article that mentions Ise Shrine will also have to be changed. [[User:Ka-ru|Ka-ru]] ([[User talk:Ka-ru|talk]]) 06:38, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

*:Do remember that there is an exception in the WP convention on temple and shrine naming that allows for a formal name when distinguishing between shrines. This change is based on that convention. Ise Jingu is different than every other Ise branch shrine and ther are about 2000 of them. The head shrine is meant to be named formally where every other branch shrine can be called Ise Shrine. The convention then states to make a disambiguation page to clear up the matter. This looks appropriate to me. If everyone would be happier calling it Ise Grand Shrine that is fine as well, but it as all other head shrines need to be differentiated from their branches which all go by the same name.

=== Official naming convention ===
:Here is an important quote about Shrine naming conventions "Japanese law permits the use of the term ''jinja'' only in connection with the traditional institutions of original Shinto wherein the ''kami'' are enshrined. The institutions of Buddhism and of the existing Shinto Sects are denied the right to use the designation....''Jinja'' is thus a modern Sino-Japanese legal designation and does not represent the earliest known usage. Older and more widely used terms employed in the literature to indicate the abodes of Shinto dieties(kami) are ''miya'' or ''omiya'', ''yashiro'' or ''miyashiro'', ''hokora'', and ''mimuro."<ref>">{{cite book |title= Religion in the Japanese Experience |publisher=Wadsworth Publishing Company |location=Belmont, California |first=H. Byron |last=Earhart |edition=1st |year=1974 pages|19-24 |isbn=0-8221-0104-1}}</ref>
:So if we lump the "new sect" Shinto in to the "shrine" designation/translation, is is clearly incorrect. The other designations ''jingu'' and ''tiasha'' are also legal designations.
::Upon futher reading, most Japanese web base sources use Ise Shrine is reference to the generic complex of Ise shrines and Ise Jingu, Diajingu, Ise Diajingu, or just Jingu for the name of the head shrine itself. Encarta titles it Ise Shrine, but it is searchable through them as Ise Jingu. They do not make any distinction between sub-shrines and the main shrine and the article is 1 paragraph. Their location map is called Ise Jingu. Britannica uses "The Grand Shrine at Ise" however they list it as a "temple". Herein lies the problem. The topic of Shinto is usually poorly reported, incorrectly named, and innacurately stated. I have done my homework and feel that here at WP we can make a break from that pattern and really show the best Shinto resource available that money cannot buy. More to come as I am still reading.

=== "Ise Jingu" ===
Well so far I see no support for the supposition that the Highest shrine in Japan should be called the Ise Shrine. The predominance 75% of the sources that I find all use "Ise Jingu" or "Jingu" and the rest 25% use "Grand Shrine of/at Ise". Sometimes referencing Ise shrines as a generic when making broad statements. I'll provide more if this is not convincing.

So there it is - the vast majority of easily accessable common usage and verifiable web sites, magazines, and newspapers use "Ise Jingu" followed by a second "Grand Shrine at Ise" and at dead last with only 1 actual reference is "Ise Shrine" having ignored all sources that link to WP which many do. In every case the name "Ise Jingu" or "Jingu" is referenced along with "Grand Shrine at Ise" or the generic "Ise Shrine" when the latter is used. I could not find a single book reference calling "Ise Jingu" Ise shrine exclusively.  WP has the responsibility and the large informational foot print requiring accuracy, and I believe that I have made my case.

=== Style manual ===
Ill quote the entire section of the style article for accuracy. This is a specific shrine needed to be separated from all the others with the same name. 

Temples and shrines
'''Use the Japanese name''' and insert a hyphen before bō (坊), dō (堂), in (院), ji (寺), gū (宮), sha (社), taisha (大社) and tera/dera (寺). However, write the English word "Shrine" in place of jinja (神社), jingū (神宮) and myōjin (明神). Use common name instead of formal name (Kinkaku-ji, not Rokuon-ji; Yama-dera, not Risshaku-ji). '''All words are capitalized and place/personal names should be offset with a space'''. Use redirects liberally. 

I think that the instructions are quite clear. Use the Japanese Name (Ive given ample proof of the name of the shrine), put Shrine after it, capitalize it. 
As far as the instructions go it should turn out "Ise Jingu Shrine" or "Jingu Shrine". [[User:Takashi Ueki|Takashi Ueki]] ([[User talk:Takashi Ueki|talk]]) 22:41, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
:The wording is "write the English word "Shrine" '''in place of''' jinja (神社), jingū (神宮) and myōjin (明神)." (emphasis added). That means to re''place'' ''jingū'' with ''Shrine'', producing ''Ise Shrine'', which was the move request.

:::We keep hearing the argument "Ise Shrine could mean any shrine in Ise". This is a false and inaccurate argument. There is a capital "S" in "Shrine". This is recognised as THE Ise Shrine, meaning the Grand Shine of Ise (or "jingu" in the Japanese). If it meant any shrine is Ise, it would be with a small "s". Yes, there are many shrines in Ise, and they each have their own name. Many of them are listed at the end of the article. It seems that the problem lies in the fact that "Ise Shrine", "Ise Grand Shrine", "The Grand Shrine of Ise", "Ise Jingu" and "Jingu" are all names used for Ise Shrine. The last two are the Japanese names, and obviously some believe we should be using those to be "more correct". Having lived in Ise for several years, I am quite comfortable with the "Jingu" name, but for the purpose of Wikipedia, which aims to provide useful information for the general public, we should stick to the conventions and stick with the English name "Ise Shrine". This shows no more disrespect than using the name "Japan" in the English Wikipedia instead of "Nippon" (which is also a proper-noun). It is simply common English usage. [[User:Ka-ru|Ka-ru]] ([[User talk:Ka-ru|talk]]) 12:11, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
::::Most importantly, the use of "Ise Shrine" is what [[WP:MOS-JP]] dictates (I found the guideline and read it), as outlined above. I do not see a compelling reason being given to ignore the consensus offered by the guideline.<br/>— [[User:Ohms law|<span class="texhtml"><i>V</i> = <i>I</i> * <i>R</i></span>]] ([[User talk:Ohms law|talk]]) 10:35, August 8, 2009 (UTC)
:::::I fully agree with Ω.  The MOS is crystal clear on this point, and I am not convinced at all by the Japanese side's arguments here, which seem to mostly stem from not understanding English.
:::::For comparison, [[Westminster Abbey]] is listed on ja-WP under [[:ja:ウェストミンスター寺院]], lit. "Westminster Temple".

::::::Yes, It seems that what everybody is saying here is that the shrine is called Ise. It is not called Ise, the name is Ise Jingu, or Jingu. In english it is mostly translated Grand Shrine at Ise in common usage. I am not arguing that it has to be called it Japanese name, especially as I am American, but that the accepted use for the most important shrine in Japan shoule be the most accepted English usage. In all published literature, and by the rules set forth in WP style, is the "Grand Shrine at Ise". The useage of Ise Shrine just does not exist in any accepted format or in any acedemic community. It simply make the argument for its usage look ignorant to an international audience. I am trying to lend credibility to WP in an area that I understand quite well. If you want to reject that level of acedemic credibility, feel free. It does not mean that I will either agree. However I am going to take this up the chain as far as it will go. The Shrine can be called in the english "The Grand Shrine of Ise" as commonly used and called in the past here at WP. I see no discussion of that change. [[User:Takashi Ueki|Takashi Ueki]] ([[User talk:Takashi Ueki|talk]]) 04:14, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Takeshi, your comments "The useage of Ise Shrine just does not exist in any accepted format or in any acedemic community" is simply not true. The first two academic journals that I picked up (I'm doing some research on a related topic) both refer to it as "Ise Shrine" and, as I said, an academic research database accessed from my university has hits to "Ise Shrine" outnumbering those of "Ise Jingu" by 4 to 1. I've also just done another search to double check using a different multiple academic database search and the results came back 162-71 in favour of "Ise Shrine" in academic journals. It would seem the name not only exists, but is the more common name in English-usage. [[User:Ka-ru|Ka-ru]] ([[User talk:Ka-ru|talk]]) 07:43, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

=== Correctness ===
:As an undergraduate student of Japanese religion I am hard-pressed to explain why "Shrine" became the default English word for all sorts of shrines, except that it is common. The dictionary definition is "sacred place"-- who decided it's a good translation of jinja, jingu, etc.? As far as I can tell nobody in the scholarly world has given any thought to that issue. I don't think there is any logical reasoning behind using the "common" name instead of the technically accurate one; it speaks only to a lack of Western knowledge about Shinto classification of shrines. If we stuck with what is common we would still be calling the [[Dalai Lama]] the Grand Lama like we did in the 18th century, and Muslims would still be "Mohammedians". But eventually cooler minds prevailed in both those cases and we decided to use the terms that those people called themselves to ensure accuracy, and we should do the same here. This is a case where encyclopedic value would be sacrificed for the sake of an unimportant and arbitrary term, and I would recommend the guideline be changed.

Since none of use can readily verify anything about anyone else (it's certainly possible with work, but that's contrary to the "anyone can edit" attitude) the only solution is to basically ignore personal opinions and seek consensus on verifiable [[WP:RS|reliable sources]]. That way, the interpersonal aspects of these disagreements are significantly downplayed, and everything becomes an excercize in referencing (which, not coincidentally, builds on the quality of the Encyclopedia).<br/>— [[User:Ohms law|<span class="texhtml"><i>V</i> = <i>I</i> * <i>R</i></span>]] ([[User talk:Ohms law|talk]]) 17:56, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

:Agreed.<br/>— [[User:Ohms law|<span class="texhtml"><i>V</i> = <i>I</i> * <i>R</i></span>]] ([[User talk:Ohms law|talk]]) 20:33, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
:This seems like a good consensus for me, but only if Takashi Ueki agrees. He is doing excellent work to improve all the Shinto-related articles on Wikipedia and I am convinced (especially after reading the articles by Bernard) that his request to me was not some anti-English POV pushing but an insistence on correcting sloppy terminology.

::::::This line of reasoning is exactly why we rely on [[WP:COMMONNAME]]. Wikipedia doesn't really care about "the #1 English-speaking expert on Ise Jingu", precisely because that entire line of debate is to be avoided. Add references ''to the article'' which clearly state the name that you think is appropriate in order to establish a common name. If it's true that "Ise Jingu" is most accurate, then that should be easily aparent in the references. According to (yet another) quick survey of the references that are in the article however, (and also through reliance on [[WP:MOS-JP]] guidelines) "Ise Shrine" is the [[WP:COMMONNAME]]. We're not trying to dispute any facts here, we're simply trying to not directly participate in these sorts of issues. This debate should occur outside of Wikipedia, and Wikipedia will catch up once the references change.<br/>— [[User:Ohms law|<span class="texhtml"><i>V</i> = <i>I</i> * <i>R</i></span>]] ([[User talk:Ohms law|talk]]) 22:26, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
::::*And as far as I can tell - at least one major university library has nothing by her at all - she uses "Ise Jingu" to her colleagues, and "Grand Shrines of Ise" in her book title, which is - at least in theory - communicating with the general public; we are doing the second.

===Final Thought===

I see all the arguments and feel that one of the two names needed to be used, thanks for the thoughtful discussion and making at least the properly translated name. The Shinto priest that I use as a reference knows the priests at Jingu and even he would accept "Ise Grand Shrine". The Japanese is preferable, but this will work. For me it is acceptable as well. Good to know that the system works. [[User:Takashi Ueki|Takashi Ueki]] ([[User talk:Takashi Ueki|talk]]) 17:49, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

== Ship of Theseus addition ==

I line was recently added to the section on rebuilding the shrine: "It is a real example of the paradox of the [[ship of Theseus]]." I have removed this line as it does not seem to accurately describe the rebuilding process, but have put it here for discussion. From reading the ship of Theseus article, it asks whether something replaced bit-by-bit is still the same object. The main shrine building at Ise is not replaced bit-by-bit, nor is it rebuilt on the same spot, but it is an new building built on an adjacent site to the old. For a brief period of time both buildings exist together. It may serve exactly the same purpose and in the same way, but it is clearly a different building. Thoughts?

== List of 121 shrines ==

In this person's humble opinion, the list of shrines belonging to the Grand Ise Shrine detracts from the page, since it substantially interrupts the flow of the article and the reader's attention.  Moreover, it is a list, and the best place for it, IMHO, would be on a separate linked 'List' page, in accordance with Wikipedia practices.  --[[User:Vicedomino|Vicedomino]] ([[User talk:Vicedomino|talk]]) 19:39, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: '''not moved.''' The proposal rested largely on the question of [[WP:COMMONNAME]], which was contested: Ngrams showed that "Ise Jingu" was more common than "Ise Grand Shrine", but also that "Ise Shrine" was markedly more common than either. The discussion also highlighted the fact that [[WP:MOS-JP#Temples and shrines]] states to {{tq|write the English word "Shrine" in place of... ''jingū'' (神宮)}}. The MOS-JP argument lent additional weight to the opposition, and the COMMONNAME argument was inconclusive; thus, although the proposal achieved a numerical lead in supporters, I view this discussion as establishing a consensus not to move the article as proposed. <small>([[Wikipedia:Requested moves/Closing instructions#Closure by a page mover|closed by non-admin page mover]])</small>  [[User:ModernDayTrilobite|ModernDayTrilobite]] ([[User talk:ModernDayTrilobite|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/ModernDayTrilobite|contribs]]) 21:34, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
