No indication of meeting WP:N, though there could be German or Czech sources that my Google search did not find.  Sandstein  11:21, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment I'm not an expert in this field. An article published by a respected Czech magazine Týden reports that Magisterium is ...apparently the most famous school of historical fencing in the Czech Republic... ...around 4.000 students underwent training in the school... etc. On the other hand, this seems to be the only reliable mention outside of Czech, German and Slovak blogs and fansites (e. g. Mittelalter-ABC). Vejvančický (talk) 14:21, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete(weak) I wanted to say keep, but it is interesting that for something 'important' in Czech Republic and Germany, that it doesn't seem to have any entries in the German or Czech wikis.  (I could be wrong about the latter, as I don't read Czech, but none of the references to Magisterium SEEMED to be about fencing.)David V Houston (talk) 23:41, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
