I very much concur with the criticism. And the evidence is easy to find in the 
"copmmon sphere": if you compare the RELATED Japanese and German wiki 
entries on one hand with the English entry on the other hand, you will notice 
that the two sides are talking about rather different concepts. Wikipedia J (常
識) and D (Gemeinsinn) talk about something along the lines of "public-
mindedness; community spirit" and "adhering to generally accepted rules of 
behaviour", while Wikipedia E talks about such things as "verifiable 
perceptions" and "good sense and sound judgment in practical matters". In 
my version of English, people who carefully exterminate their cigarettes 
before opening the gas tank on their cars are considered to possess common 
sense. However, this same expression would not TYPICALLY be used to 
describe a person with 常識, someone who goes with the flow in a cultural 
sense, who fits in (does not stick out) and behaves so as to not rub people the 
wrong way (although situations can be construed where applying the latter is  
case of the former, especially when on eis in a potitioner's position. ;-)).
Since different societies place different amounts of emphasis/value on 
etiquette and adherence to unwritten rules, we cannot straight translate one 
society's "common sense" into another society's "common sense" -  we should 
define English words in ways that are typical for THEIR natural environment 
and Japanese words in ways that are typical for THEIR natural environment. 
(for example, we have good reasons to not (normally) translate 布団 as 
"mattress", ”お箸” as "fork", 相撲 as "pro wrestling", or 空手 as "fist fight"... 
LOL)

常識 is often used in Japanese to indicate politeness, the "common rules" of society. If you say「常識を知らない」about a person you don't normally mean that person lacks common sense (e.g., doesn't carry an umbrella when it rains), you mean, quite simply, that he/she is rude. The result is that many Japanese speakers think that if you say someone lacks common sense in English it means that person is rude. Most Japanese/English dictionaries foster this misunderstanding. Perhaps you could break new ground and give a definition which clarifies this point.

Don't see the need for a separate [adj-na] sense here.

"Inappropriate" (in this context) is a _value_ judgement, i.e., a judgement 
pertaining to social values. OTOH, "common sense" is an observational 
judgement, i.e., a judgement pertaining to the extent to which someone is 
perceived to be acting in coherence with physical and other observable (or 
otherwise recognizable) qualities of the world...

I guess I have come round to the view that it's really (just) the honorific form of 立てる and if it seemed a bit idiomatic it was due to the fuzziness of 立てる itself. I have checked and we only have a couple of おxxxxになる entries none of which are from regular verbs.
I propose to reject this one.

depends if it's thought to be more idiomatic than any other form, i guess.  it's a 
construction that applies to pretty much any verb, and i'm not sure if this one is 
more special than any other.  お-masu_stem+になる could be a candidate for 
easy addition to wwwjdic's verb conjugation chart.

AFAICT it means: "to raise up", "to establish", etc. Yes, it's a regular お+stem+になる formation, but since the meaning is not really clear, we should add it.

i just googled for "お立てになる" "your".  i still don't see any instances where i 
would translate this as that

See below.

I don't have my main dictionaries with me, but if one searches on Google for the submission plus "your", as per your suggestion once before, one can find many clues. In addition, your [A] link also supports this

Rejecting duplicate submission.

See below.

This picks up over 250k Google hits and the meaning seems clear enough so perhaps it is worth including in the main dictionary.
