Development of Japanese Nationalists Ideology since Meiji Times
The content of this page is, to all intents and purposes, essentially the same as Japanese nationalist thinking in the Meiji era, although the linked article may contain somewhat more information. The two articles were posted by the same person. Both were unfortunately marked by absolutely horrendous and incomprehensible English. However, 'Japanese nationalist thinking in the Meiji era' has been massively cleaned up and is now a readable article. There seems no need to keep this unimproved version under another name.

 * Comment. The Japanese nationalist thinking in the Meiji era should be relevant to that time period, and Development of Japanese Nationalists Ideology since Meiji Times should be about after that period.  So, the article is not another name, it is indeed a different subject.  That said, they do read pretty much the same though (but one needing to be cleaned up.  So, the article should exist, but needs different content.  --Midnighttonight 07:52, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as incoherent babbling, likely lots of original research. I'd stick to dealing with the existing Japanese nationalist thinking in the Meiji era article, and trying to sort that out. Harr o 5 08:07, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment. I suspect it was done by an automated translation system. In fact, 明治以降 (literally "since the Meiji period") in Japanese includes the Meiji period. I don't think that the difference you point out exists in the mind of the contributor.--Bathrobe 08:46, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and either rewrite or merge the bits of this that are NPOV and coherent into the other article and rename. However, the article as it stands is neither, and even the title is unclear ("nationalists' ideology"? "nationlist ideology"?). ProhibitOnions 11:49, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
