My reading is that Ankudinov thinks that there was only oral tradition before the 18th-century vita. After discussing two 17th century documents, the sentence on pages 86 and 87 says "Возможно, это свидетельствует о том, что к этому времени текст Жития Ксенофонта еще не сложился, и среди населения бытовали лишь устные предания о преподобном.

Overall: My first one in a while. Looks good as far as I can tell, though I can't access most of the cited newspaper articles to fully confirm (looks like they exist but are in print/paywalled). I just published an edit to the article for some light clean-up but it shouldn't affect this nomination. AdoTang (talk) 03:00, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

[I think it was a turning point where I can finally say that "I became a stuntman". In fact, you need recommendations from three action directors (to debut as a stuntman), but I was able to get in through a backdoor entrance thanks to the recommendation of action choreographer Stephen Tung. It was like a backdoor admission. / The latest installment of the Rurouni Kenshin film series, titled Rurouni Kenshin: The Final, in which he (Tanigaki) served as an action director, will be released nationwide in Japan on 23 April. Besides, Rurouni Kenshin: The Beginning will have its nationwide release on 4 June. Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins, another film he (Tanigaki) worked on, is scheduled for a release in the United States on 22 October 2021.]
