[edit] This page is ridiculous

1) Turn this into a disambiguation page and move all of these off of here already. This page is a wreck.

2) You don't need all these temples to begin with.

The only significant Hōkō-ji's worth mentioning are:
a) Hōkō-ji (Kyoto) (方広寺). A Tendai temple in Kyoto.
b) Hōkō-ji (Shizuoka) (方広寺). A Rinzai temple in Shizuoka.
c) Hōkō-ji (法興寺, Hōkō-ji^?). Another name for Asuka-dera (飛鳥寺). See also Gangō-ji (元興寺).
d) Hōkō-ji (蜂岡寺, Hōkō-ji^?) (Usu. pronounced "Hachioka-dera".) The old name for Kōryū-ji (広隆寺), a Shingon temple in Kyoto.

That's it. A disambig page with four links leading elsewhere. That's all you need. All the rest of the temples are non-notable. Bueller 007 19:02, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
