[edit]
Weak AfD Being the highest ranking woman in a martial art of 3000 members is good, but not quite enough. I can't find third party sources--mainly memorials and tributes written after her death. These contain some statements that need sourcing--like the claim that she trained over half a million Marines in hand-to-hand combat. Another case of clearly not fluff, but I don't think quite passes WP:MANOTE. Papaursa (talk) 02:33, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I have emailed the NWMAF and asked the to confirm the article claim of honors. We can look at this again in a few months. I will leave the notability tag. jmcw (talk) 13:14, 22 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD Don't see a real claim of notability nor any sources. Papaursa (talk) 01:29, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD. A few of the claims made in this article seem obviously untrue (e.g., inventing the concept of submissions) or cannot be verified (e.g., claimed marriage to Kyra Gracie). That aside, I have found no reliable sources to support notability. Janggeom (talk) 10:56, 19 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD Fails WP:MANOTE, autobiographical, puff piece. Papaursa (talk) 00:53, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into Meitoku Yagi. Janggeom (talk) 09:14, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Well known martial artist. Won several NASKA world titles in weapons about 20 years ago and has coached the Canadian national team. Article could use some additional references. Papaursa (talk) 02:40, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD Fails WP:MANOTE. Notability is not inherited. Papaursa (talk) 02:33, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD. I have not found sources that strongly support notability. Janggeom (talk) 09:14, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD Not finding independent sources to show notability. Papaursa (talk) 17:15, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD. I have not found sources that strongly support notability. Janggeom (talk) 09:14, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD I didn't find any independent sources that show notability. Papaursa (talk) 17:15, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD Can't find any independent sources. About 190 hits when searching for his name with "shin-toshi". Papaursa (talk) 01:47, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Kyung Sun Shin (founder, who looks like he might satisfy notability). Janggeom (talk) 10:46, 19 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I mentioned him in last week's article on Korindo aikido (which I'm going to merge into this article when I get a chance). Article could use some work, but his name keeps coming up when I search for the history of aikido. Papaursa (talk) 00:53, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Redirected to Chuck Norris on 22 April 2010 by Jmcw37. Janggeom (talk) 06:57, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD Got 1 UFC fight where he was knocked out in the first 90 seconds and then didn't fight for 15 months. Doesn't seem to meet the criteria of "fully professional". Papaursa (talk) 01:47, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Afd I'm not finding sources to indicate notability. Lots of passing mentions and fight results, but little coverage of the organization itself. The article is unsourced and doesn't make a case for notability (at least to me). Speedy was declined. Papaursa (talk) 17:15, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Unsure Don't see how he meets WP:MANOTE, but he's well known in Kenpo circles. Notability tag was removed by an IP's only edit. Papaursa (talk) 17:15, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
He has several magazine articles but no inline references. I change the tag to 'need more inline citations'. jmcw (talk) 09:38, 24 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ignore This is a Japanese video game company. Clearly not our concern. How did this wind up in the martial arts category?Papaursa (talk) 01:47, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That's a good question. I don't see any category tags that might explain it, and the article doesn't have a discussion page (and hence, no project banners). Interesting. Janggeom (talk) 07:00, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It was formerly in the category 'Ninja'. jmcw (talk) 13:27, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD Apparent autobiography with no independent sources. Papaursa (talk) 17:15, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep if sources can be found The claims of competing at several world championships would be enought to pass WP:ATH. The only problem is that the only sources I can find for this are youtube videos--clearly not a reliable source. Papaursa (talk) 01:12, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Proposed for deletion by Betacommand on 12 May 2010, but contested by Vanruvan on 18 May 2010. Janggeom (talk) 06:55, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD Seems to fail WP:MANOTE. The article of the system he founded was deleted in 2007. Without that, I don't see how he passes WP:GNG. Papaursa (talk) 17:15, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved Left Overs

[edit]
AfD I don't find anything to indicate notability in either the article or a search for independent sources. Papaursa (talk) 16:16, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as not clearly fluff. See also Wikipedia:WikiProject_Martial_arts/Article_Review/3rd_March_2010 jmcw (talk) 11:41, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment He is clearly more notable as an actor. jmcw (talk) 11:46, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD PROD was removed on day 8 claiming there are 2 book sources, but I don't see them in the article. Papaursa (talk) 16:12, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Common expression. Only reason to remove would be if a definition belongs in a different wiki. Papaursa (talk) 02:26, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
AfD This is an unreferenced article about a TV show that shows boxing. Not really sure if this is ours. Papaursa (talk) 02:26, 20 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
