First of all, nice work. Does Eddie Bravo qualify?--Razionale (talk) 17:52, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd say he's suitably notable. Incidentally, just added a rubber guard hat note to an article a couple days ago. I think many in the BJJ community are aware of his contributions as well. Buddy23Lee (talk) 17:57, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

Is Instagram or FB reference for posting on Wikipedia? A.Widder (talk) 10:34, 10 February 2023 (UTC)


 * @A.Widder Social media postings are largely not acceptable as sources as they are considered WP:USERGENERATED. Sometimes an official page may be used if it can be authenticated as belonging to the person but in this case it needs to concern a notable Brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioner.

Luiz França Filho
> Luiz França Filho – (Brazil, 1910–1982) was a Brazilian martial artist and one of the primary founders of Brazilian jiu-jitsu, particularly the non-Gracie lineage. Despite being a pioneer of BJJ he was never awarded with the 10th degree red belt.

If he wasn't awarded the 10th degree red belt, what's he doing listed in the 10th degree red belt section? Was it awarded posthumously like Oswaldo Fadda or what? Unknown (talk) 16:17, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
