The man who designed several top grossing games for Sega is not merely a person of no significance that does not belong in this database as some are suggesting. It makes no sense to exclude the creator of a work from an Encyclopedia, but then to include his work. Just because a person is not famous in THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA does not mean he is insignificant. Please try and understand that.

"The given reason is: it is an article about a person, group of people, band, club, company or website that does not assert the importance or significance of the subject." This is clearly not applicable for very obvious reasons.

The majority of the games the man designed are in this Encyclopedia, therfore it makes very little sense to exclude the man who conceived them, who is well known in Japan, from the Encyclopedia simply because he is not as well known in Western countries as the games he created.
