Fails the general notability guideline. Source searches and news searches reveal no independent, reliable coverage of either the group or the term. DrStrauss talk 13:04, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Whilst the article requires some copy-editing, I don't see notability as an issue. The name is clearly common, and as is often the case in the region it appears to denote a community in itself. See for example https://books.google.com/books?id=wLzDLsEYZGQC&pg=PA36 , https://books.google.com/books?id=Qs4BAAAAMAAJ [p. 76] etc.. --Soman (talk) 10:23, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Those are just passing mentions. Your argument boils down to passing mentions and it exists. That doesn't satisfy GNG. DrStrauss talk 15:00, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I cleaned up the stub. Without any references or specific people of this name, I'm not sure how the article can be kept. But they possibly do exist. power~enwiki (π, ν) 20:05, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, this article has no references as it sits. This information would be better served on the Meitei people page. Randomeditor1000 (talk) 14:29, 13 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, This article has no references, or any information. If there is information on this, I feel like it would be just as likely to be brought forward from nothing as this stub. With Thanks - Lee Vilenski(talk) 15:33, 13 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
