Comment--There is an entry on Katō in Kōdansha's Nihon jinmei daijiten. I have added it to the article. I suspect more can be found in other sources, especially Japanese ones. Michitaro (talk) 00:43, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Courcelles 00:25, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as above. Unlikely to expand much beyond the current article, but has an entry in a major Japanese biographical source (日本人名大辞典). Bueller 007 (talk) 02:36, 19 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment -- The development of consensus at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Abe Motozane (2nd nomination) may be a helpful guide, especially the descriptive overview of Nihon jinmei daijiten here by Michitaro and the summary analysis here by DGG. In this way, we learn from working together and we avoid reinventing the wheel. --Ansei (talk) 15:13, 19 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep We consistently keep people with equivalent careers and similar documentation in european historuy. Undoubtedly expandable, when someone gets around to it, but appropriate in the meanwhile. DGG ( talk ) 22:39, 19 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
