Flunkeyism

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I see no evidence that this is a legitimate term for anything. Simply a dictionary definition, and Wikipedia is not a dictionary. A redirect to Sadaejuui is not appropriate as it would be baffling to any reader not familiar with North Korean governing philosophy. D O N D E groovily  Talk to me  19:57, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

I think the entry is a fair & interesting one and would vote to keep it (modulo the usual rounds of edits and updates that the Union of Wikipedia Writers might come up with). It's rather much more than merely a "dictionary definition" (and can grow or be modified further to take other links and aspects into account), and plays e.g. an important role in official DPRK rhetorics and politics. Users may perhaps feel inspired to hunt for such links and quotes to have them included in the article. Slavatrudu (talk) 11:25, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete The topic here is really client state. We shouldn't be using NK usage for this because that's propaganda and so not WP:NPOV.  Warden (talk) 07:05, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
