The result was redirect to Haikyū!! with no prejudice against recreating as a stand-alone article if stand-alone notability can be proven. Regards So Why 14:10, 2 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Manga artist only known for the Haikyu series. As shown in the opening paragraph, manga artist has never attended any event, so notability independent of the series is difficult to assess. Recommend direct to Haikyu. JA Wikipedia shows some interviews but most are in the context of Haikyu. But this can be reviewed to see if that has enough for Furudate's notability.

Procedural Keep per WP:CREATIVE third bullet, if his work is notable (which it undoubtedly is), then he is notable. Additional content should be translated from .jp Newimpartial (talk) 17:01, 27 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's not clear there's any biographical info independent of Haikyu!! though. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 13:39, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
