Intonjutsu

Unsourced non notable martial arts related dictionary definition, which does not justify a self-standing article, as per WP:NOTDIC Samuraiantiqueworld (talk) 01:21, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Among valid references all I can find is this dictionary type definition "Intonjutsu (escaping and concealment)". This is a term which may be used in an article about martial arts terms but as far as I can see there is nothing to justify developing a stand alone article out of it let alone enough material.
 * Delete I agree with Samuraiantiqueworld - there are plenty of hits, but I've yet to see anything that's more than a passing mention (and most of those are on some seriously dubious "modern ninja" websites that would fail WP:RS quicker than you can say, "learn the mystical arts of the Ninja!"...).

 * Redirect to Ninja. My searches in Japanese were inconclusive - I found a few mentions of the word, but no concrete connections with ninjutsu. However, the majority of Japanese books on Google Books are set to "no preview", so this by itself doesn't prove much. The term is not in the Daijirin Japanese monolingual dictionary (very large and comprehensive), although I found it in WWWJDIC (includes some vetted, user-contributed definitions). I did find a couple of English sources that mention it in passing, but none that goes into to any detail. If there is an article in here it would probably require some Japanese-language library research, and until someone puts in that effort I would consider this topic of questionable notability. There are enough results on the web that people could search for it though, so redirecting to a relevant article would probably be best. The most appropriate one that I found was Ninja. —  Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 09:47, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
