My original goal upon coming across this article was to clean it up, but the more I read the more dubious the sourcing appeared. The article needs a massive cleanup for tone and MOS compliance but I don't want to waste anyone's time if this the article isn't worth keeping in the end.

I am not a martial arts expert (or even anything remotely close) but this article is sourced exclusively to obscure websites and the WikiProject Martial arts member I consulted suggested that this article doesn't meet the GNG and I'm inclined to agree. I'm happy to retract this nomination if good sources can be found, but I could not turn up any. A Train^talk 13:49, 1 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete I don't think the sources in the article show the coverage needed to meet WP:GNG. My own search also didn't find good coverage. Of course, if someone can show good references I will reconsider my vote. Papaursa (talk) 02:18, 14 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
