Yuka Saitō (voice actress)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Contested PROD. The subject fails both WP:BIO and WP:GNG. I have been unable to find any reliable sources for the subject. There are plenty of user-edited sources and the one source from her agency, but nothing reliable. Inks.LWC (talk) 18:30, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. Not seeing any reliable coverage or sourcing to satisfy notability criteria. --DAJF (talk) 22:51, 15 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep I added one reference to the news section of Anime News Network, to confirm she was in a series as the character indicated. If those are major characters in notable series she has done, then that makes her a notable voice actor.  See WP:ENTERTAINER.  Her roles can be confirmed in the primary sources if there was any sincere doubt it was her.   D r e a m Focus  02:47, 17 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Weak keep. Most of her roles are secondary characters but ones that fans of the shows could identify if asked and are notable within the fandoms. That said, there's not a whole lot of information currently on her at this time so I can't make any strong arguments to keep her article up at this time.

 * Keep. Per Dream Focus Comment and per WP:A&M/ORS.--Ald™ ¬_¬™ 12:39, 17 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep. --shikai shaw (talk) 19:44, 17 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment: Does anyone read Japanese? I think this might be an interview with her, but I'm not sure. --Cattus talk 20:49, 17 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep for now: The one interview does look promising, but one interview isn;t enough to make them notable. However, given that something has been found and the difficulty in locating info, I'd say its a good reason to keep for the moment. This is not a blank check to keep the article forever if nothing else is found though. 陣 内 Jinnai 22:00, 17 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment: Over the past 24 hours, this article seems to have been subject to numerous redirects, dabs and so on. I think the article under discussion is now Yuka Saitō (voice actress) - could someone please confirm? PWilkinson (talk) 18:37, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
 * That's the article with the AFD notice that links here.  D r e a m Focus  22:06, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Updated the links to the article. --Kusunose 02:01, 20 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment: Hitoshi Doi's seiyuu database lists a 1 page article about her in an issue of Newtype . I don't know what exactly the article entails, but it might be useful source. Calathan (talk) 05:53, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Apparently I have that issue somewhere, although since I can't read much Japanese it is of limited use. If I can find it (and if I remember) I can provide a photo of the page if someone else wants to look at it. Shiroi Hane (talk) 13:52, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
