Shaun E. Seifer (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non-notabel (I only got 22 ghits using the name). This seems to be WP:OR adn WP:COI - dare I say vanity page. Peter Rehse 00:23, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

• Delete non notable per Peter Rehse.--John Lake 00:27, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Not bad as an accomplishment, but very COI and...well, is he notable? --Dennisthe2 00:30, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

• Delete fails WP:BIO, seems like a vanity page, no sources that attest his notability. - Anas ^Talk? 16:44, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
• Delete WP:BIO comes to mind on this article.Tellyaddict^{Editor review!} 17:41, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
• Delete; if one creates a style of a martial art, one should probably have more coverage than has been turned up here. Fails WP:BIO. Tony Fox (arf!) 20:56, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Okay, so how would one make this "wiki material"? It is not a vanity page, as I am the author, and most certainly not Shihan Seifer. Do I link to articles for the International Sport Karate Association he has written? (http://www.iska.com/kickboxing/product_reviews.htm)and edited (http://www.iska.com/2001results.htm)? How about his work with people and arts that are already on Wiki? I just want him to get the recgnition he deserves.

Wikipedia isn't the venue for that. Wikipedia records notable persons, places, things and ideas that have been recognized elsewhere by reliable third party sources. Unfortunately, Mr Seifer does not have the reliable sources needed to meet the Wikipedia standards for verifiability and notability - CosmicPenguin (Talk) 03:44, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

• Delete - I couldn't find any non-trivial reliable sources - without them, WP:BIO isn't met. - CosmicPenguin (Talk) 03:44, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. This is heading for a delete even without my vote, but Tenchi Bujutsu scores only 50 unique Ghits, all of which are an assortment of forum chats, directory listings, miserably failing WP:V and WP:RS. Although claimed not to be vanity, it probably fails WP:NPOV: phrases such as "prefers to simply be known as Sensei Shaun Seifer" make me cringe. Ohconfucius 01:36, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
