<upd_detl>See for example, 完ぺき [adj-n] and 完ぺきさ[n]
The noun is 重要さ, right?

<upd_detl>Although this is almost invariably an adjective, the kokugos (as usual) label it as a noun as well. That's part of the reason we have stuck with "adj-na,n".  I wouldn't really mind dropping the "n" in these cases but I'd like it to be generally agreed among editors and contributors that walking away from the "名・形動" is the best path.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>In meikyo it's 形動 only. We sometimes drop "n" if one or more of the kokugos has the word as 形動 only and its use as a noun is rare. I think it's OK to do here.</upd_detl>
