On the face of it, an Emeritus Professor of Linguistics at the University of Tokyo should meet the notability guidelines for academics. However, I have been unable to find any mention of this Professor at either the University of Tokyo or Hosei University, other than books he has written being used for course material (which is not enough). Google books has a couple of his books and he's referenced in a couple of others but this article really needs more.--Plad2 (talk) 08:19, 2 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
