Takayuki Negishi

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Unable to locate any reliable sources independent of the subject sufficient to establish notability. There may be sources in his native language but I have not been able to locate them. The only reference on his Japanese Wikipedia page merely confirms that he is a composer and lists his works. J04n(talk page) 14:38, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Well, that ja.wiki reference gives us a place to start -- which is to say, that it's unreferenced is irrelevant and the issue is whether those credited works are sufficient to pass WP:COMPOSER or WP:CREATIVE. The article doesn't do a good job of selling this, as the list includes several notable series whose articles aren't wikilinked. Given that, this looks to me like a substantive body of creative work, enough so I'm inclined to say keep. —Quasirandom (talk) 01:28, 31 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete. No reliable sources to verify notability or any of the details stated in this article. --DAJF (talk) 01:38, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Unreferenced for 3 years? Delete unless well-referenced by end of this debate. Long enough.--Scott Mac 16:06, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Can't find independent secondary sources to establish notability. Davewild (talk) 16:18, 1 August 2010 (UTC)


 * No vote. Just here to demonstrate that article sourcing past a certain point remains a specialist affair. --KrebMarkt (talk) 09:43, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Note that i'm withholding a long list of charts ranked CDs where Takayuki Negishi was credited for all arrangement. On that aspect he is a way more successful as an arranger than composer. --KrebMarkt (talk) 09:43, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per the lack of substantial coverage in reliable sources. After a search on Google News Archive using both the subject's English name and his Japanese name, I have been unable to find sources about him. I have reviewed the links provided in KrebMarkts' data dump and have not find anything that would allow the subject to pass Notability. Because this article fails Notability (people), Verifiability, and Biographies of living persons, and because it has been an unreferenced BLP for three years, it should be deleted.
