Nothing to show this is a notable martial art (see WP:MANOTE). My search found no significant independent coverage of this art and the article's only sources are youtube videos.Mdtemp (talk) 15:45, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete This has been on my list for potential AfDs since it was created with that hope that the article tags could trigger article improvement enough that my concerns be shown to be wrong. The art appears to be an add on to two non-notable organizations and in fact the name and article itself suggest it is just a variation of Haedong Gumdo which itself could do with better sourcing.  As per nominator the only sourcing is primary.Peter Rehse (talk) 15:55, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - A News search found a few links (but it is not in-depth) while Books and browser found nothing useful. Since this has not been covered significantly and in-depth by notable sources, delete. SwisterTwister   talk  06:19, 2 May 2015 (UTC)


 * It doesn't meet any of the normal required article conventions and in its current format it is hard to find an argument in its favour, while agreeing with many of the points previously made, I'm hoping the articles creator is aware and understands that the article will be deleted if changes are not made but I'm willing to wait a little longer to give the editor the right to reply before I decide.

 * Understood. I made the page without a full understanding of the GNG policy.  I'm going to be looking for more, but the majority of information on this subject is mainly primary source.  Superflusive (talk) 20:09, 3 May 2015 (UTC 06:00)


 * Delete A WP:BEFORE search was very inclusive. Youtube and Tripod websites came up on the first page. Does not appear to meet WP:GNG. Mkdw talk 22:55, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Lacks the significant independent coverage required to meet WP:GNG. I found nothing to support the claim that this is a notable martial art. Papaursa (talk) 17:46, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
