Non-notable martial artist. My search found no significant independent coverage of him. There is nothing that shows he was notable for his acting roles or martial arts. A passing mention that he trained to jump over a moving car does not meet any notability criteria. Fails WP:GNG, WP:MANOTE, and WP:NACTOR. Mdtemp (talk) 16:52, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Agree with nominator. There are other problems with the article - mainly the POV tone and digression into unrelated areas. Would have taken a bit of cut and slash but not while it is in AfD. No evidence he was a student of Mas Oyama.Peter Rehse (talk) 16:58, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Doesn't meet any notability criteria that I can find. My search found no significant independent coverage and the article has just a few passing mentions so WP:GNG is not met. There's also nothing shows notability as either a martial artist or as an actor. Papaursa (talk) 21:28, 2 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as searches only found one mention at best, nothing convincing. SwisterTwister talk 05:37, 6 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
