Stevan Plinck

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Despite being a supposedly "well-known" martial artist, there are no sources cited whatsoever, and remarkably few mentions of this person on the Web apart from sites promoting sales of his videos. No sources have been supplied by any editor since the article was created at the end of 2007. Was prod'ed in January 2010 but contested in May and undeleted.

 * Delete The first three google pages are nothing but promotions for the guy's DVDs and books. I see nothing that seems like a third party recognizing Plinck as notable. Uucp (talk) 13:44, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. There are some passing mentions of the subject in Black Belt magazine, but I have not found anything substantial to support notability. Janggeom (talk) 14:58, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Another case where the article doesn't even make a good case for notability. Mentioning his students and teacher doesn't show notability since it's not inherited.  His students aren't even famous for being martial artists.  Looks more like PR to me. Astudent0 (talk) 19:46, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Like the previous editors, my searches haven't found anything notable about this person. He clearly seems to fail WP:GNG.  Papaursa (talk) 03:45, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
