Comment His claim to notability is as an aikido instructor and author. Not karate.Peter Rehse (talk) 14:03, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

~~*Weak keep~~ I've found and added couple of references in Hebrew that supports what is written in articles. I am not sure what is inclusion criteria in marital arts, but by informal WP:WPMA/N looks like he's passing. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 16:47, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No indication he meets WP:MANOTE since he has not founded a significant style or published any significant martial arts books. He doesn't meet the notability standards for authors or musicians or entertainers. My search also didn't turn up significant independent coverage needed to meet the GNG. Blogs, videos, self-published materials, seminar announcements, and passing mentions do not show notability.Mdtemp (talk) 17:06, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Out of the reference I've added, this one [1] is a news site in Hebrew. But looking deeper, I probably change my Weak keep to Delete Arthistorian1977 (talk) 19:38, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

To minimize confusion I have struck your previous vote. Papaursa (talk) 00:11, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete My search didn't turn up significant independent coverage to show notability, although I'll admit my search was in English. I don't think the sources mentioned in the article show he meets WP:GNG and I didn't see anything that convinced me he meets WP:MANOTE or any other SNG.

Comment Being a native Hebrew speaker I can add that searching in Hebrew, I found only one reference, I mentioned above that may be useful. All others are blog posts and invitation to seminars. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 08:14, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
