- I'm wondering about the relationship between this article and Face (sociological concept). Depending on what the article creator has in mind and what sort of sources she/he has on hand, this may be an appropriate article. —Quasirandom (talk) 22:16, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak KEEP: Article claims to be about the idea, rather than the word, and claims notability. However the only reference is to a dictionary. Could go either way, but it's still a stub, so should be given chance.BigBodBad (talk) 06:22, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I'd be happier with a Keep if the article creator had done any editing on it since adding the under construction template on it, instead of going off and editing other articles -- so we had a better idea of what the intention is/was. —Quasirandom (talk) 03:14, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- To be strictly accurate it's not a dictionary definition because it defines Meisei as an idea, rather than 'Meisei is a term that means...'.BigBodBad (talk) 12:16, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

- Comment: There isn't an article on ja:, either at ja:名声 or ja:めいせい. —Korath (Talk) 01:07, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete or redirect to face (sociological concept), very weakly and without prejudice. "Face" is for better or worse the usual English word for East Asian concepts of social reputation and a complex of cultural norms centered around avoiding public contradiction or embarrassment. That would appear to bring this article's subject within its scope. FWIW, the two See Also's for the school and the author are spelled with different kanji and may be only mere homonyms in romaji. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:17, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
