Sure, but more often kanji than kana, so special kana markup wouldn't be that big a win. See the thread "International Upgrades"; the vague plan is to standardise the internal character set and present the wikipedias in Unicode to capable browsers. (Please comment!)
Really? There are kanji in articles about Japan? I mean, articles other than articles about the language or other special cases?
That seems odd to me. I'm not opposed to it, necessarily, but it seems very odd. I mean, there's no reason to expect that kanji will be useful to the vast majority of readers.
Can you send some examples?
Murasaki Shikibu Anime Princess Mononoke Neon Genesis Evangelion Miyazaki Hayao (and lot more)
In fact majority of Japan-related article have some kanjis.
