Again, I don't check all the scans yet to confirm if there is any Masaru Shiina credit, and I know my own submissions (like him) don't necessarily follow the criterion given by Blah above, so I might be overly inflexible here...
I think it has to be judged on a case-by-case basis to avoid confusion. So while in Kikuta's case it would feel strange to use his real name since 'no one' knows him as that, it's probably fine either way in this case.
