Unreferenced list of productions masquerading as a BLP. The only link is to a primary source. Google search throws up nothing biographical. Perhaps it would be better as a category linked to those publications that have articles or in the form of a list of publications? HJMitchell You rang? 18:46, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as he passes WP:CREATIVE since he has directed in one of the largest anime franchises, Case Closed (AKA Detective Conan), including 9 movies and several OVAs. The list of works does need some reformatting and reorganization, but that's about it. --Farix (Talk) 01:31, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep -- passes WP:CREATIVE as director of several notable films (or at least, notable enough to have articles). Also, a light trouting for claiming that Anime News Network is a primary source -- it is, most definitely, third-party (and for news and reviews about the industry, most definitely reliable). —Quasirandom (talk) 02:27, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I note that the ja.wiki article lists at least double the credits we do, most of them blue-linked to articles (and thus considered notable). —Quasirandom (talk) 02:31, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep If it does get deleted, then this director should also be deleted Noriyuki Abe. DragonZero (talk) 02:32, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep I really don't understand the reason for nominating this article for deletion. A list of a person's accomplishments is an excellent start for an article on the person. The accomplishments establish that the person deserves an article. There is no reason it has to grow according to any timetable, but if growth into a biography is desired, a category cannot do it, whereas an article can. Articles are not born adults; Wikipedia acknowledges "stubs" as legitimate articles to keep indefinitely. So keep it, and maybe it will grow. Maybe biographical information will be published that will one day let this article become a biography. Meanwhile, there is a list of the person's accomplishments, and that's a good thing to list for a person. Fg2 (talk) 03:42, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep An article needing improvement is not grounds for deletion. It already has one independant English langauge source, more should be available in Japanese. Edward321 (talk) 14:31, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep He has contributed to many notable projects. Dream Focus 20:35, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep per Farix and QuasiRandom. --Gwern (contribs) 14:44 9 May 2009 (GMT)
- Keep This person did many projects and the page can be improved. I don't really get why this page is nominated to be deleted. Raychut (talk • contribs) 17:42, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as there is sufficient notability in the extensive list of works. Symplectic Map (talk) 01:47, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
