Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shoko Goto (3rd nomination)
Editing mostly Chinese-related articles and in many cases having relied on sources that are in the Chinese language, I'm not insensitive to cultural bias on WP, and have helped save and translate articles in the past that would have appeared not notable if we relied only on English-language sources.  Having said that, I'm entirely unconvinced that , specifically the criteria for porn stars, is culturally biased.  It's based on three basic criteria:  1) awards won or nominated, 2) notable contribution like starting a trend, 3) and appearances in mainstream media.  Unless there's no industry awards in the Japanese porn industry, I don't see how these criteria are culturally biased.  Another point that I would like to make is that a lot of articles are made on porn stars that are simply not notable, and a quick look at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Pornography/Deletion shows that the overwhelming majority of porn star articles that have been deleted in the past, at least judging by their names, are ''American'' porn stars.  Which only goes to show that  has been just as strict, if not stricter, regarding American porn stars
