I'm going to see what I can find with "松山 まみ" - The Google hits suggest that she's some kind of model or swimsuit model, but I need to get those precious "reliable sources"

Comment It appears that Matsuyama was not just a model for erotic photo books and DVDs, but for a time an actress with some press coverage. Her biggest role was in the TV show Chousei Kantai Sazer-X and its movie version, Chousei Kantai Sazer-X the Movie: Fight! Star Warriors, but she also had a regular role in Gal Circle. As a result of all this, for a time she did have coverage in the major sports papers and tabloids: for example,
SpoNichi,
Sports Hochi,
Nikkan Spa, and the regional paper
Mutsu Shinpo. She also had articles on other major entertainment sites like
Oricon Style, and
Zakzak[1][2]. This is coverage that is on par with a gravure idol just achieving fame. The problem is that she disappeared after 2007, and apart from occasional blog posts wondering what happened to her, there is no real coverage after that.

Comment. Seriously, the sports papers in Japan are not "largely" featuring "young female swimmers." They are daily national papers focusing on sports and published by the major national dailies (Sponichi/
Sports Nippon is a subsidiary of the
Mainichi Shinbun and
Sports Hochi is a division of the
Yomiuri Shinbun, Japan's largest paper). They also publish regular and entertainment news and are used as reliable sources throughout Wikipedia (I have also used them on many AfDs). As for the TV shows and film, I have added some sources--all easily pass notability requirements. I am still undecided, however, whether this is sufficient to make Matsuyama notable.
