Wikipedia is not a genealogy database. Radiant! 10:08, Mar 2, 2005 (UTC)
 * Indeed. Delete. Mgm|(talk) 10:54, Mar 2, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. This article was not a genealogy database entry. I reorganized and added to it. Fg2 13:35, Mar 2, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, preferably, failing that merge with a daimyo or somewhere. Kappa 14:32, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Definitely notable in Japanese history. HyperZonktalk 17:50, Mar 2, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Notable historical figure.   &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 21:11, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Does not meet basic deletion criteria.--Gene_poole 22:56, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, geneology, a lot of Google hits are referring/linking back to the Wikipedia article. Megan1967 23:48, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Notable, encyclopedic, historical.  Need I say more?  Beautiful save, BTW. - Lucky 6.9 02:11, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: She had a notable father, a notable father by adoption, a notable brother by adoption, and a notable husband, and lived through some notable events. The article doesn't say what she did that's encyclopedic.  There's also no article in ja:, for what that's worth.  No vote yet. &mdash;Korath (Talk) 10:17, Mar 3, 2005 (UTC)
 * Changing to delete, based on Atsi Otani's agreement below. I wouldn't object to some of this content being moved elsewhere, however. &mdash;Korath (Talk) 11:53, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: I added some info to the original article (as 202.232.46.213 - I forgot to login), but I have to agree with Korath - I can't figure out what she did that's encyclopedic. The Aizu Joshitai, which is mentioned in the article, seemed much more significant to me. Atsi Otani 06:14, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Non-notable figure who was just related to notable people.  RickK 06:16, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)
 * Concur with Korath and Rick; being related to a notable person does not make you notable yourself. Delete stands. Radiant! 10:11, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)
