Keep notable enough for an article. SportsOlympic (talk) 22:46, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

reply. @SportsOlympic: you are an editor that believes that a local news source is enough to establish notability hence anyone can get a Wikipedia article according to you. Australianblackbelt (talk) 05:51, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete does not appear to have attracted the requisite secondary coverage required for WP:GNG. Jamesniederle (talk) 12:05, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete My search did not find multiple examples of significant independent coverage of him. I found several articles by his students about training with him, various videos of him demonstrating techniques, and ads for his dvds--but none of that counts as independent coverage. The short South China Post article about him recovering from cancer is the closest thing I saw and that's weak coverage as it's based on talking to Chu, his son, and a student. If someone finds more significant coverage please ping me. Papaursa (talk) 01:00, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
