I will pretext this with declaring share of interest that I have some affiliation with Go-Kan-Ryu, also known by its acronym "GKR". It is not a "style" of karate itself, but a club/school that is influenced by traditional styles. Having said that, even I'm willing to suggest that the club is not notable enough for it to exist on Wikipedia. -- Tytrox (talk) 14:25, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete- most of the citations fail WP:IRS and the remaining 2 are non-substantial passing mentions. I would agree with the nom. Cabrils (talk) 21:49, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete My search found no significant coverage of GKR itself in any independent reliable source. Passing mentions in local articles about students are not sufficient to show WP notability. Papaursa (talk) 00:54, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I concur. Not enough to go off of here in terms of sourcing to pass WP:GNG at this time. --TheSandDoctor Talk 05:51, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
