 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Karateka who fails both WP:MANOTE and GNG. Passing mentions in some tournament results and competing against some well known fighters is not enough to show notability. There is one good Black Belt article on him, but that's not enough (and I'm not sure how much independent research went into that article).Mdtemp (talk) 18:29, 27 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete The article is heavy with trivia of a minor nature and who he had associations with (WP:NOTINHERITED).Peter Rehse (talk) 10:06, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Page has been updated. Individual was a top 10 ranked Black Belt Karate Fighter. He passes WP:MANOTE by being (1) Subject of an independent article/documentary and (2) Repeated medalist (as an adult black belt, i.e. 1st dan equivalent or higher rank) in another significant event; - (e.g. competitors from multiple nations or significant national tournament, not an internal school champion) .

 * It is just hard the way it is written to understand where the notability comes from. If it is there it is buried.Peter Rehse (talk) 18:09, 2 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete - Article gives undue importance to his Karate life, fails WP:MANOTE and is not encyclopedic. Regards— ☮ JAaron95  Talk   16:18, 30 August 2015 (UTC)

He passes WP:MANOTE by being (1) Subject of an independent article/documentary and (2) Repeated medalist (as an adult black belt, i.e. 1st dan equivalent or higher rank) in another significant event.  Has faced and defeated many top fighters of his era.  ARticles about him span the 1960's, 1970's and 1980's  CrazyAces489 (talk) 06:40, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Fighting notable fighters doesn't make him notable. Repeating sources and listing passing mentions of him in results doesn't increase his notability.Mdtemp (talk) 17:10, 2 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Weak Delete Most of this article seems to be about the notable fighters he fought (and mainly lost to). However, notability is not inherited.  The sources are primarily results from various tournaments.  There is some coverage of him, but I don't think it's quite enough to meet WP:GNG. Losing your temper repeatedly and getting disqualified are not grounds for notability. Papaursa (talk) 03:32, 3 September 2015 (UTC)
