• Comment - it would be great to have an editor fluent in Japanese to check out some of the citations in the article on Full Metal Panic!, the manga series she illustrated; and also Comic Valkyrie. Netherzone (talk) 17:49, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• The only citations I found for FMP were primary sources (a mention on Kadokawa along with other staff involved), and from retailers. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 21:25, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Retsu Tateo is the author of a popular manga series. I think she meets notability. — Coastaline (talk) 23:22, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Full Metal Panic!. Her Japanese name is written as 館尾, I could find no notable information in WP:RS other than passing mentions. I am fine with a redirect to FMP as that appears to be her most notable contribution. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 21:20, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge or Redirect - to Full Metal Panic. After searching, I could only find mentions of her in relation to FMP. It seems that editors fluent in Japanese have weighed in above. If some SIGCOV in RS can be found I could change my mind. Netherzone (talk) 15:21, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect as suggested. Bearian (talk) 20:01, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect - to Full Metal Panic! Netherzone (talk) 20:12, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect it may be notable as Coastaline said and could be recreated if we find additional RS. Spudlace (talk) 03:50, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
