 * Delete or merge into the article on COVID itself. Also concerned about FRINGE here with this. Jerod Lycett (talk) 20:58, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:TNT. Weird, POV ramble sprinkled with tangential footnotes. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 01:21, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Only one of the five references actually uses the term "mask shaming". Roping them together to make the case that "mask shaming" is the preferred term for this supposed behavior is against policy, and we definitely shouldn't be preserving text that violates policy by merging it somewhere else. If the lexicographers conclude that this neologism has become established, then we can write about it, but not before. In other words, stop trying to make "fetch" happen.

 * Delete: some of this could arguably merged into one of the Covid-19 pages or possibly peer pressure, but this page is too broad, vague and brief to stand alone. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 08:36, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep Mask shaming is a real thing. There is no POV push here. There is SIGCOV to support this article, therefor it is a keep. Lightburst (talk) 00:06, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
 * QUESTION Is there enough to write about for its own article or should it be merged to the article about the virus? There was news in England of people standing out on their balconies at a certain time each day to show support for the health care workers, and then some people harassing others who weren't doing it.  People are getting upset about all sorts of things.   D r e a m Focus  00:24, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment: We don't have an article on mask-wearing as a response to COVID-19 at all, despite a litany of national and local government recommendations and regulations. We should create such an article, and merge this there. BD2412  T 02:56, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. This article is a good example of synthesis and OR in the way it bends and stretches its sources.  If there's a valid idea here, it would belong in Social stigma associated with COVID-19 (and would mention shaming of people who wear masks).  --Lockley (talk) 04:51, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
