- Delete. Former video game programmer for SEGA. Some of the games he worked on are notable, but there is little indicator that this programmer himself has received the requisite multiple non-trivial coverage from reliable third party publications to pass GNG.

- Weak Keep. More material on this guy exist if you search using "内田 誠" (his name in Japanese). example 1, example 2. There is also an interview of Uchida included with the game Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection as an unlockable. I would consider this to be a reliable (albeit unconventional) source. I agree that the article is definitely in need of some expansion/improvement, though. Hopefully the rescue squad can pull through. -Thibbs (talk) 18:58, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
- Keep the designing of multiple notable games is notability DGG ( talk ) 04:01, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
- If the person is notable I would hope there would be coverage from reliable third parties (sega.jp is a primary source). JBsupreme (talk) 22:49, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
- Comment - We need a Japanese speaker. This article (already mentioned) definitely takes the question-answer form of an interview. Here's another article. Both articles so far come from sega.jp, which may be the official Sega site. A search for "内田 誠 sega" results in +600k ghits. There's a handful of hits at itmedia.co.jp, which is considered reliable per WP:VGRS. SharkD Talk 08:16, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
- Keep per DGG, many prominent classic games created by this person. Ikip 04:20, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
