The result was delete. After the IP comments are discounted, we have only one editor who wants to "weakly" keep this; that's not enough. Sandstein 10:12, 10 October 2015 (UTC)reply
No significant independent coverage. High rank is not enough to show notability. No indication he's notable as an author and the claims of being a great teacher are solely from his students (not independent). Running and judging some tournaments does not show notability.

Not sure but maybe weak keep as the martial arts coverage may be minimally acceptable and if he was well known, that would also be notable. It's also possible if there's any more coverage, it's not online; my searches found nothing better than Black Belt at Books.

No vote yet but there is no indication that the judo books have had any impact so the term notable judo author is a bit fast and loose. Pre-internet has no relevance.

Delete No significant independent coverage of him. Passing mentions are not enough nor is being part of a panel discussing weight training in the martial arts.

Delete He doesn't meet the general notability criteria or the specific criteria for martial artists or authors. The only sources that talk about him being a good teacher were written by students of his. There is no significant coverage from independent reliable sources to support any claims of notability.

Delete I was hoping to be swayed but I see nothing to show notability as an author (as my previous comment) and high rank does not sustain notability or being the teacher of twins whose own notability is borderline.
