OK, I'll ditch it. I'll amend and keep the name entries.

I don't think we need this as an entry. 大 can be used with all sorts of words. I'd delete all the 〜の大スギ entries as well.

I also think this is sufficiently clear without the note.

I don't think the note is really helpful.

  Comments:
Googling for の大杉 brings up lots of "Great Cedar of XX" sites. We have 20+ in JMnedict, e.g. 熊野神社の大スギ. We could:
(a) make them "Great Cedar of the Kumano Shrine", etc.
(b) add an entry like this and remove the ...の大スギ entries.
(c) simply zap the ...の大スギ entries and let people work it out for themselves.
Suggestions welcome.
