 * Delete - Fails general notability guidlines. also WP:OR --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 22:36, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Do not be in a hurry to remove the article. Before you do anything - think. I suggest first of all read the article available interwiki. What other original research question? Here, for example an article in the Russian Wikipedia -> http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9A%D1%83%D0%B4%D0%BE --Dobryi TiP (talk) 19:14, 7 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - I actually don't want to vote for deletion considering the JP Wikipedia page is written much better and this is a fast-growing authentic offshoot of Kyokushin, but asides from an RT article here there simply isn't coverage in EN; there is no sourcing from independent news outlets. The RU Wikipedia page has half-dozen dead URLs and the rest redirect to commercial sites. The only reason it should not be deleted in the JP Wikipedia is because of Minoki Ichihara  who competed in UFC 2, and what is notable in JP internally is not necessarily notable for EN Wikipedia, so articles like Kenichi Osada  stay because tracking Karateka is notable in Japan through print publications and events, even if not covered by Yomiuri, Mainichi, et al.

 * Delete - unless it has received Japanese coverage, then I don't see how it is notable. It is fast-growing, so I don't have any prejudice for recreation when it gains more coverage. Also, if there's enough independent coverage for Minoki Ichihara, then write an article about him and then Daido Juku Kudo could be a possible redirect.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Relisting comment: Verifiability and notability is not established only via English language sources. Please make new comments with that in mind.

 * Delete My search turned up a lack of independent reliable sources covering this art (regardless of language). Everything I found is from associated clubs and organizations, Facebook, youtube, etc.  The English version of this article has no sources, while the Russian version lacks independent ones.
