Nothing to show he's a notable martial artist (WP:MANOTE) or author. Lacks the significant independent coverage in reliable sources to meet WP:GNG. Nothing in his film career shows notability, either.Mdtemp (talk) 15:01, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

He definitely has a presence for those that follow this sort of thing. By coincidence he popped up on my Facebook page shortly after I saw this AfD. He is prolific and has a fan base (not me) but not sure that would meet Wikipedia's notability criteria. Can not bring myself to vote either way - just saying.Peter Rehse (talk) 14:28, 13 May 2016 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete He is mentioned in a number of blogs. The problem is that my search didn't turn up what I believe is significant independent coverage from multiple reliable sources.  I didn't see anything that shows his books allow him to meet WP:MANOTE or WP:NAUTHOR.  The burden of proof is on those who claim notability and I don't believe that's been shown.  Of course, if someone can point me to some good sources I will reconsider my vote. Papaursa (talk) 02:55, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
