 * Weak keep well-known Kenpoist but lacking in sources. JJL (talk) 16:40, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Keep. A google books search reveals several potential sources. I do believe this needs to be brought into line with WP:BLP soon but since I see nothing especially controversial in it now, it's not dire. Mango juice talk 17:26, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak keep a la JJL. Not sure if WP:BLP applies: he is not alive. I cleaned the copyright material from the article but did not find any strong notability source. Does anyone have information about his book? jmcw (talk) 22:42, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. McSweeney is definitely notable in the Martial Arts.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 05:37, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
