[edit] Low importance?

I have no clue why this article is tagged as "low importance". Kotodama is one of key concept of Shinto and influenced Japanese culture throughout. It has affected people's daily life as well as literature. Some conventions were based on this notion. I would like to know the rationale why this article is marked as "low importance". --Aphaia 04:12, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
