Fails WP:GNG - Japanese artist management agency with no significant coverage and no notability in evidence either as a business or as a record label in its own right. Alexandermcnabb ( talk) 06:50, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

- Keep. The article has several citations, and my Japanese is not sufficient to evaluate them, but it suggests a prima facie possibility of a GNG pass here (even accounting for the fact that one or two of them look like PR sources). It certainly suggests the nominator's judgment cannot be taken without scrutiny, as no mention is made of the sources in the article or any WP:BEFORE. At worst, we'd want a merge to Amuse Group, anyway, and I fail to see why people keep dragging these things to AfD when we have other venues to deal with them; a redlink here is certainly the worst of all possible solutions.

Keep: Lots of ghits, decades of existence. Is there a Japanese Wikipedia article? SmokeyJoe ( talk) 12:22, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Arguments focusing on the quality of available reference material would be very helpful in determination of the outcome. "Ghits" and "decades of existence" would not.

Thanks, Seraphimblade Talk to me 05:32, 21 June 2022 (UTC)- Having translated the sources, en and ja and zh Wikipedias, non of them contain secondary source information. It’s just lots of mentions of this record label sponsoring things. The ja and zh articles are worse. Fails
