[edit] Hosinshu

Hosinshu (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Not notable. There are no Google hits for the subject of this article, "Hosinshu". The article makes it clear that this is a martial art that was only recently invented by one person. There are no references and the lack of hits implies very few people use it or are talking about it. andy 12:54, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete Non-notable, Unrefed looks like was created as an ad. --Nate 12:57, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
  • It probably was. The article originally began with this line: "This Article is Hosted with the permission & information from the developer of Hosinshu Martial Arts only. Please do not edit this." andy 13:52, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
I removed that & replaced with the {{advert}} tag --Nate 13:59, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete if you do not want us to edit it, find a free web host to host your advertisement. We aren't the site you have in mind. —Resurgent insurgent 2007-04-10 07:04Z
  • Delete as nn spamvertisement. There may be an article on this subject as soon as it's mentioned in reliable sources. szyslak (t, c) 08:08, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per the lack of reliable sources. Given that it was uploaded by the developer of this martial art, it raises serious conflict of interest issues as well. Cheers, Lankybugger ○ Yell ○ 14:03, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

*Strong Keep, because martial arts develop over time and so even new developments are worth mentioning when concerning something that is significant to pretty much all human civilizations. --Wikipedian, Historian, and Friend? 16:55, 10 April 2007 (UTC) (user blocked indefinitely as sockpuppet) --Ashenai 08:21, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
