Manga artist known mainly for Saru Lock (22 volumes), has some manga titles for Resident Evil (Biohazard/heavenly island) and Resident Evil: The Marhawa Desire, but is that enough to keep around? I looked at Resident_Evil#Comics but do not see it listed. Has been tagged for notability since 2011, and outside of Resident Evil, not much improvement on the article. JA Wikipedia isn't promising either, barely a stub there with just a short list of works. MADB isn't showing anything for his anime either, so it must be all manga artist stuff.

Redirect to Saru Lock as a possible search term. Such a redirect is cheap, in this case. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 22:55, 4 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect - I have a vague feeling that deletion may be the wiser choice in this case, but after considerable reflection I can't come up with any defensible reason why. The only concern I can put forth is that Saru Lock may not be the most appropriate redirect target, but if so then it's easy enough for someone to change it later.--Martin IIIa (talk) 15:15, 21 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
