[edit]- Japoy Lizardo: Filipino taekwondo practitioners; Notability Status May 31: no action needed
- AfD Clearly non-notable as a martial artist, but don't know about his notability as an actor. Papaursa (talk) 03:06, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
- comment I removed the category bringing him into martila arts. jmcw (talk) 21:04, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
- Jason Scerri: Australian kickboxers; Notability Status June 12: AFD closed as delete
- AfD Unreferenced BLP. I'm confused about his record: the info box shows 18-3, the article's list of fights shows just 2 (both losses), and kickboxer.mag.co.au shows his record at 27-14. This mag also lists him as the #7 junior middleweight kickboxer in Australia. Don't think that's quite enough. Papaursa (talk) 03:06, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
- Jeff Delaney: American eskrimadors, Martial arts biography stubs; Notability Status May 27: Speedy Delete A7
- Jersey Cowboy: American wrestlers; Notability Status May 5: no action taken this week
- Jesse Glover: American martial artists; Notability Status June 1: Keep because sources have been added
- comment Papaursa, if you are not satisfied with the sources, feel free by me to take it to AFD. jmcw (talk) 13:17, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
- Joe DeGuardia: Boxing; Notability Status June 7: AFD closed as delete
- AfD His Golden Gloves championship was for New York City--nice, but not sufficient for WP:MANOTE. No indication his career as a lawyer passes WP:GNG. His work as a boxing promoter may be notable, but I'm not sure how to judge that. Papaursa (talk) 03:06, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
- Johan Skålberg: Martial arts biography stubs, Swedish martial artists; Notability Status May 10: Prod closed as Deleted
- John Chow-Hoon: American martial artists, Martial arts biography stubs, Martial arts school founders; Notability Status May 5: no action taken this week
- John G. Kennedy (physician): Fencers; Notability Status May 5: no action taken this week
- John Linebarger: American karateka, American martial artists, Martial arts biography stubs; Notability Status May 5: no action taken this week
- John McSweeney (martial artist): American karateka, American martial artists, Kenpo; Notability Status May 16: AFD closed as Delete
- AfD No indication of notability except for receiving his black belt from Ed Parker and notability is not inherited. Also lacks third party sources. Papaursa (talk) 03:06, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
- AfD started. It survived AfD before, but I think it's worth revisiting. Papaursa (talk) 04:03, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
- John Worley (Martial Artist): American martial artists, United States martial arts biography stubs; Notability Status May 1: Prod closed as Deleted
- AfD Another unsourced BLP of a non-notable martial artist.
- Jonathan Spinks: American kickboxers, United States martial arts biography stubs; Notability Status May 5: no action taken this week
- K-1: K-1, Kickboxing organizations; Notability Status May 31: no action needed
- Keep Not sure how anyone could mark K-1 as being non-notable. Papaursa (talk) 03:06, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
- comment There was a defective template copying the 'notability' tag into every article it was transcluded into. I removed all uses of the template. jmcw (talk) 21:44, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
- Karate International Council of Kickboxing: Kickboxing organizations; Notability Status June 5: Keep
- Keep, but possibly biased Gsearch turns up mainly people associated with it or lists of organizations. I'm familiar with it in connection with running WAKO's US kickboxing championships. It's not COI, but is that considered OR? Papaursa (talk) 03:06, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
- Wikipedia's policy on original research says that if you are putting forward an idea or analysis not already published, that is original research. If you know about an organisation's notability, and can provide some reliable sources for that view, then it's not original research. If this organisation really is notable, there are probably some references out there to support this, and it's likely just a question of finding them. Janggeom (talk) 15:58, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
- Upon further research, it appears this KICK and the KICK associated with WAKO are different organizations. However, I did add sourcing to the article and removed the "unreferenced" tag. I left the notability tag in case others wish to comment. The article could use work, but the organization is probably still a "weak keep". Papaursa (talk) 03:44, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

- Keijutsukai: Aikido organizations; Notability Status June 5: Keep
- Keep It seems well-known in aikido circles and I found independent sources. Papaursa (talk) 03:06, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
- Kenpo kai: Karate, Kenpo; Notability Status May 5: no action taken this week
- Kenyu Chinen: Okinawan karateka; Notability Status June 7: AFD closed as delete
- AfD. This article was nominated for speedy deletion on 15 September 2009 (the day it was created) but this was contested. It is possible that the subject's notability might be more easily established from French language sources, but I have not found strong support for notability yet. Janggeom (talk) 15:51, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
- AfD I didn't find independent sources, but I stuck with English sources. Papaursa (talk) 03:44, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
- Kombatan: Eskrima, Philippine martial arts; Notability Status May 5: no action taken this week
