Rafael Nieto (martial artist)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Six trivial mentions in Google News. Claim to fame is creation of Zen-Do, a non-notable form of karate that appears to be taught solely by Nieto. (When searching, do not confuse with Zen Do Kai.) Unreferenced stub tagged since 9/2007 w/o improvement. THF (talk) 13:51, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
