M. Katano has programmed 3 video games. I don't think these few credits are quite notable enough for an article; I can't find any information about the person himself. It does not seem to be possible to expand the article beyond a short credits list, with actual biographical information. Megata Sanshiro (talk) 10:43, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - there are no reliable sources to assert notability of a living person. Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 11:55, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete not much more than a name among the credits, of which there are dozens or even hundreds for a major game. I'm not sure that the IMDB link is actually for the same person, as the names are spelled differently. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  12:21, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. A few credits, nothing else notable about the individual. --Quartermaster (talk) 13:45, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. This should have been a blpprod since no references are given. Besides that, no notability except being credited 3 times is given. — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 17:27, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep They have a book about him and other key people in the massively notable Final Fantasy series, called Final Fantasy Designers. And he played a significant role in the development of three different notable projects.  Did he have any character based on him in the game?  Some games do that.

 * That book is a printed mirror version of Wikipedia. It was automatically mirrored and wasn't even proofread (note how "Itō" because "It?"). Wikipedia content cannot establish notability for... itself. Megata Sanshiro (talk) 08:28, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
