Reliability Tier3
Reliability tier 3: a Wikipedia entry, written and revised by unnamed volunteer editors, suited to an uncontested, easily checked point about an art form rather than a disputed claim. NotesWikipedia's article on Japanese calligraphy, consulted 2026-08-11. A perpetually community-edited reference page rather than a peer-reviewed publication; used here for the term's origin, the Heian period emergence of the wayo style, and shodo's place in current Japanese education, standard reference facts rather than contested claims.
