to be clear, I do _not_ want this article deleted, it is my article, but the BLP prod clock was running down, so this is the only way to get larger community input. There are 53,000+ Google hits for this name+karate, in English, Russian, German, Italian and some Indian languages, but many are industry publications, mirrors of the wiki article in other languages and so on. I am certain that good references must be out there, but have no idea where to look further.

Comment All you needed to do was insert one RS that backed up one statement for that BLP Prod to go away - but now there is a larger issue. Is he notable enough for a larger article. In my opinion he is mentioned enough in the article on the art he founded and does not require his own article. The
Kūdō article has similar problems - the sources are primary - and does not show notability in the wiki way.

PRehse:Problem is I went looking, and everything I found, as I said, was a non-RS. This will settle all those issues, one way or another, and unlike Trump, I will accept the outcome. ;) --

Merge with
Kūdō. The references above are more about the art rather than the subject. It would be a good thing if the above references were included in the
Kūdō article since that one is at risk of being deleted for lack of asserted notability also.

Merge with
Kūdō, as above. I agree that the available reliable sources seem to be about the art rather than about Takashi Azuma. Merging will keep the history intact so if anyone can find better sources in the future an independent article can be recreated.
