 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Previously deleted (soft delete after minimal participation at AfD), declined subsequent G4 because of soft deletion, this article remains problematic - subject would not appear to pass WP:GNG, there is minimal sourcing on offer and no more RS presented than last time - and finding anything out there is problematic both in English and Japanese - admittedly, I didn't get too far in Japanese. Given the tagging and the time given to improve this and the deletion history, I'm nominating for deletion as not notable either as a musician/producer or as a business person.

 * Delete per nom—I also noticed a possible COI: check out the username on the image uploader. 〜 Festucalex  •  talk  10:10, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: I was the nominator for the previous AfD, and I stand by my rationale from that nomination. I've searched thoroughly for sources, including with the subject's name written in Kanji form (河田秀樹), and haven't found any independent sources that satisfy SIGCOV. This article seems to be the target of an SPA who repeatedly re-creates it whenever it is deleted, so it's unfortunately necessary to put this to bed with consensus here at AfD. — SamX &#91;talk · contribs&#93; 16:43, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete as unrectifiably promotional in its current iteration. I note that there is no equivalent article on the Japanese Wikipedia, but the first line of ja:FUTURE UNISON (created by the SPA under discussion above) links to the English version of this article as the primary justification of its notability, which probably explains the recreation here.

 * Delete, I don't see how he is notable. Fulmard (talk) 19:03, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
