Contested prod. I can't find any third-party source for this person sufficient to pass WP:BIO. 0 relevant Gnews hit. Tim Song (talk) 01:57, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as this article does not pass WP:RS, and therefore also fails WP:BIO per nom. ArcAngel (talk) 02:23, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. No sources relevant to writing a bio. Kevin (talk) 07:51, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Please don't delete this article, this Master is for real. I've trained under Master Jino Kang for over 5 years and he's taught Hapkido and Tae Kwon Do for over 25 years. He's the son of Grandmaster Myung S. Kang who was one of the founders of the original International Hapkido Federation under Jae Nam Myung. He has operated his school and federation in San Francisco, California for over 20 years ( http://www.hapkidousa.com ). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.241.37.140 (talk • contribs) 13:48, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
 * The thing is, there are no independent sources that assert notability. Making claims is one thing, backing them up is another, and that's why this article has problems with notability.  ArcAngel (talk) 14:03, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Please do not delete this article. My family has been training with Master Jino Kang for 7+ years at his San Francisco studio.  We have been studying Hapkido martial arts. (user:actual student) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.25.240.225 (talk • contribs)  21:05, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

 * CommentReply to above. Please calm down and please control you emotions. We are discussing here in a proper manner, not shouting or yelling. Next time you comment, do not write in capital letters as it is unpleasant to read and we feel like if we were attacked. Thanks! Jolenine  ( Talk,  My Contribs ) 23:35, 2 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete - Nothing worth keeping, looks like spam and individual promotion with no sources to back those claims up. The legalese spam posted here by possibly the creator of the article further hurts its credibility in my point of view.  GraYoshi2x► talk 02:00, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete While there are assertions of notability in the article, those assertions are not discussed in reliable sources. Actually I can not find significant coverage of him in reliable sources.  Fails WP:BIO.   GB fan  talk —Preceding undated comment added 19:56, 3 October 2009 (UTC).
