 * Delete No reliable sources found under this or any alternate spelling (aside from a listing in an Italian martial arts dictionary, totaly inadequate for WP:GNG). Yunshui 雲&zwj;水 10:54, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Espionage. I, too, had no luck finding sources that mention "jouhou kaishuu" as one of the bugei juhappan, either in English or in Japanese (with the exception of the aforementioned Italian martial arts dictionary). However, as the article says, this is phrase means "intelligence-gathering", and it is still in use in Japan today. I think it is just about possible that people may search for the term, so I would prefer a redirect to outright deletion. —  Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 08:29, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete I was unable to find any reliable sources in English that support notability for this phrase--much of what I found was wiki mirrors. The article itself is unsourced.  As written the article appears to be a dictionary term and, possibly, original research.  I don't know if the term is notable or common in Japanese. Papaursa (talk) 03:01, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
