 * comment I originally tagged the article for prod based on non-notability but that was contested with an attempt made to address the issue. I still think the group is non-notable with only a dozen local schools.  Please see the articles talk page.Peter Rehse 07:24, 11 February 2007 (UTC)


 * keep 12 schools is not in the grand scheme of things a large number of locations. My argument, rather, and to be more clear, is that this school is notable based upon its stature as a large Canadian institution. Shugyo 09:05, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
 * context please see Association de Karaté japonais du Québec Not sure about the notability here also.Peter Rehse 06:34, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
 * clarification Association de Karate Japonais du Quebec is in Central Canada and offers Shotokan karate. Shintokukai (Matsukaze-ryu) is in Western Canada and offers its own unique style.  The geographic distances between these two schools relative to the size of Canada is vast (analogy: New York and Seattle). Shugyo 21:23, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete without bias unless any reliable third-party sources can be found. I failed in my attempt to find any. Only 47 Ghits for "Matsukaze-ryu karate -Wikipedia", which suggests but doesn't prove a lack of notability. Dekimasu が... 05:46, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Unless some reference for notability can be found besides the school's website.MightyAtom 11:25, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
