Demographics needed

I know it's not easy to measure, but... How many people identify as followers of Shinto? Smilo Don (talk) 14:46, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong link

In the second paragraph, the "robux" link redirects to the "Roblox" page 193.0.108.42 (talk) 15:50, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Definition

"The term Shinto is often translated into English as "the way of the kami""

I cannot find "kami" at all in the English dictionary. 130.0.28.174 (talk) 10:59, 24 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge of Shinto in popular culture into Shinto

Basic violation of WP:NOTTVTROPES and WP:TRIVIA. Most examples have no bearing on Shinto as a whole. Suggest pruning the most notable examples and merging them to Shinto. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 21:25, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support I feel like this would give more people an understanding on Shinto as a whole. TheSwagger13 (talk) 04:39, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose just because I think the Shinto article, which is long enough as it is, will end up getting unnecessary material dumped into it - which will ultimately be detrimental to it. If the material in the Shinto in popular culture article is insufficiently sourced, poorly written etc it should be deleted, not moved. Midnightblueowl (talk) 11:20, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. TheSwagger13 (talk) 11:25, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support It’s a short article, do some pruning, just make a new section. It’s not changing much.
