Sayoc Kali

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Unsourced article about a non-notable martial art. There's no indication of why this art is notable and the only source refers to people wanting to revolt against Spain. The article says this is a historical Philippine martial art that was developed in 1980 in Queens, New York. Papaursa (talk) 19:54, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete First of all - a historical martial art developed in 1980? Or maybe the rules were codified in 1980? Either way, I failed to find enough reliable coverage for the sport. At least arnis has reliable coverage and is notable because it's the Philippine national sport, but this one? No. I'm not sure if this is related to arnis, but if it is, then any reliably sourced material can be merged either to arnis or Filipino martial arts. Oh wait - there aren't any sources! I'm willing to reconsider if sources are found, though. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 07:17, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete I couldn't find independent reliable sources to show this is a notable martial art and the article gives no sources at all that mention this art. It certainly doesn't seem to meet any of the notability criteria at WP:MANOTE. Astudent0 (talk) 15:54, 16 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete The article has no sources and I don't see anything that shows this art is notable. Mdtemp (talk) 18:52, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
