Only a handful of journal articles with 0-1 citations, based on Google Scholar search (ignoring the math and biology articles by authors of the same name). No suggestion whatsoever of passing WP:SCHOLAR or WP:GNG. — MarkH21 (talk) 05:12, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete. If the most you can say is that he wrote a book chapter, he isn't notable enough. There appears to be a different Takuya Murata, a molecular biologist at the University of Tokyo, with moderately well-cited publications (the top one of which was retracted) but since the area is totally different I think it must be a different person. (I didn't see any math articles; there is no one by this name on MathSciNet.) For the Takuya Murata described here, we have no evidence of passing WP:PROF nor any other notability criterion. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:19, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
 * There is at least one arXiv preprint, like this, but unlikely to be the same person. — MarkH21 (talk) 07:22, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I don’t know if that matters, but that (arxiv one) is me. I am not the subject of this article too. My name isn’t that uncommon. —- Taku (talk) 12:03, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete. Fail passes WP:SCHOLAR or WP:GNG.--SalmanZ (talk) 13:39, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete getting a chapter published in a book does not make one notable. I still have not created an article on historian Jay Buckley, and he has authored multiple books.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:37, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete for now. It appears he was in a graduate program at the Hawaii Research Center for Futures Studies, but I can't find any solid information about him. Instead, I'm only finding passing mentions of him. For the moment, he doesn't pass any of the notability guidelines. ··· 日本穣 ·  投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe ·  Join WP Japan ! 23:03, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
