Keep No Position - assuming the article is correct that they hold the position of "Distinguished Professor," that is a pass under WP:PROF. Changed based on discussion below. PianoDan (talk) 18:06, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Tsukuba University automatically give the position of "Distinguished Professor" for safely retired professor. See the article 94 of this . For that reason, Tsukuba University is turning out in great numbers of "Distinguished Professor." This person have not noticeable academic achievements.--Harada Daisuke (talk) 22:50, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry - I don't seem to be able to cut and paste that into Google Translate, and I don't speak Japanese. Are you saying that in this case "distinguished professor" is the equivalent of "emeritus professor" at western universities? PianoDan (talk) 23:22, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I don't know in detail about "emeritus professor" at western universities. But in Japan, the position of "Distinguished Professor" is surely given for retired professors in very many universities. "Distinguished Professor" is almost completely careless position in Japan.--Harada Daisuke (talk) 23:49, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
 * 「名誉教授」in Japan, see this .--Harada Daisuke (talk) 00:47, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

Notice Removed unreliable description that "He once served as a science and technology deputy under Prime Minister Noboru Takeshita." Noboru Takeshita cabinet was established in November 1987. But Nakagawa had been became an associate Professor at Tsukuba University in 1980. This is biography by Nakagawa himself, and there isn't any source that "He once served as a science and technology deputy" in Japanese.--Harada Daisuke (talk) 03:52, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete Depending on our basic researches, I don't see any notability for this author. The article as it reads is also nothing more than puffery. Dear Debasish (talk) 07:35, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
