 * Keep He's a producer of major fashion events, and has received various awards, although I don't know how notable they are. The Japanese version of this article is much longer and has over 30 footnotes. So plenty of material there if someone wants to translate it. I put an Expand Japanese tag on it in case it survives. – Margin1522 (talk) 14:07, 30 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep for now - Since I patrol new Japan-related pages, I noticed this before but did not mark it for deletion because the name "Fumitaro Ohama", which is supposed to be the real name of this person, comes up with lots of hits, such as, , , , , , etc. There are also hits for his Japanese name 大浜史太郎: , , , , , etc. Not all are significant, but they are an indication that his name regularly appears in the business and fashion press. What I am unsure about is the name "Jake F.R.". I have yet to find a reliable sources that says that Ohama is Jake F.R. (though given the odd name, it is hard to search). The Japanese wikipedia page does not even state that Ohama is Jake. If no sources can be found, I think the name of the article should be changed to Ohama, which is clearly the name most often used in the media both in Japanese and in English.
