Hiroshi Kaneda

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Japanese astronomer about whom nothing has been reliably published. The source in the article in not even sufficient to refernce the full name. Kevin (talk) 01:59, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. As the eighth-most prolific individual discoverer of asteroids, he passes WP:Notability (academics).  Has a paragraph in Dictionary of Minor Planet Names and also mentioned here; many relevant hits searching for his name in kanji, though google translate mangles them and my Japanese is rusty enough to barely be better. &mdash;Korath (Talk) 07:32, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
