[edit] Inaccuracies
This page contains a number of inaccuracies, as does the discussion below.
Kyokushin was one of the largest styles of karate before the death of Oyama. Following his death there was a significant break-up of the organisation.
Oyama, contrary to folklore repeated here, did not kill any bulls or bears for that matter. He was an outstanding martial arts practitioner who did establish a very vital and popular style. However, like most big organisations, it has fallen afoul of human weaknesses and the perils of associated with the martial arts.
Senior practitioners of the style have been repeatedly rumoured to be linked closely to organized crime (though this is not unusual for many martial arts styles): the yakuza in Japan, organizatziya in Russia and equivalents in other countries. However, this is impossible to verify.
Accordingly, there is considerable mystery or misinformation regarding the style.
The problems may relate from practitioners from various subgroupings of Kyokushinkai volunteering different information.

[edit] conclusion drawn?
This opening statement:
A very practical method of self defense, Kyokushin is deeply rooted in the philosophies of self-improvement, discipline and hard training.
The front part A very practical method of self defense, is drawing a conclusion rather than putting forth a citable reference of information. Especially since the word 'very' is put in for emphasis. It is inappropriate for wikipedia articles.

KYOKUSHIN TODAY
I've removed a section in "Kyokushin Today" for the simple reason that this could be argued vehemently by many of the broken Kyokushin organizations. The previous writer, definitively from IKO1 gave his personal and biased opinion on the matter with his own reflection which is not a Wikipedia way of informing the reader. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.80.89.230 (talk) 14:47, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Sosai3.jpg
Image:Sosai3.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
