ShinKen-Do

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Unreferenced article on an unarmed martial art evidently unrelated to the Japanese swordfighting sport Shinkendo, with no indication of notability per WP:GNG. There seem to be societies for this in a few countries, but there's no significant coverage of it online from WP:Reliable sources; only Gnews hit was this brief local press article about a club forming: [1]. Zero Gbooks hits. Proposed deletion contested by article creator with an incoherent edit summary. OnionRing (talk) 20:42, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete As per nominator. Worth pointing out that the only two references given in the article have nothing directly to do with the subject.Peter Rehse (talk) 20:54, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The unrelated Japanese martial art Shinkendo was also deleted by AfD (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shinkendo )but most of the searchs pull up the Japanese varient.Peter Rehse (talk) 21:21, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The article has no sources and there's no indication of notability. My search didn't turn up the coverage needed to meet WP:GNG and there's nothing to show it meets WP:MANOTE. Papaursa (talk) 23:08, 25 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails WP:GNG and WP:MANOTE. Mdtemp (talk) 14:30, 28 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
