Another non-notable martial arts style. All references are self referential.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 03:56, 16 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. There seem to be quite a few references from different sources online, and Google Books brings up a few mentions. Citations appear go back to the 1990s. Is there evidence that most of these references are not valid? --Tim D (talk) 19:09, 16 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Appears to be a non-notable martial art. None of the references in the article are independent. The closest I came to finding an independent source was a book at amazon.com, but it turns out to be published by the people who own the Miyama Ryu Combat Jujutsu trademark--not exactly independent.
