I couldn't establish that he meets WP:BIO or WP:GNG. This has been in CAT:NN for 14 years, so hopefully we can now resolve it. Boleyn (talk) 18:12, 13 January 2024 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 20:55, 20 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete. I am not sure there is any assertion of notability in the article, and only the birthdate is cited. I could not find anything better in a search. Dekimasu よ! 05:05, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Weak keep I did some searches and added some content, an image and references. According to the International Aikido Federation he was a notable person, see here. It looks to be notable person, but can't find many secondary sources. It would be good to do a search in Japanese, but I can't speak Japanese. 82.174.61.58 (talk) 12:46, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete: Fails GNG and NBIO. Sources in article and BEFORE found nothing with WP:SIGCOV from WP:IS WP:RS addressing the subject directly and indepth.
