No indication of notability as a martial artist or "graffiti documentarian." There's nothing to show he meets the notability standards for martial artists (WP:MANOTE) or anything else. The article's sources are blogs, an article on one of his martial arts instructors, and a PR release for an exhibit he was involved with. Notability is not inherited and I don't see any signficant independent coverage of him. Mdtemp (talk) 22:23, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Unless we can come up with more independent citations I would agree with the nom. Certainly if half of what is claimed is true there should be more out there.Peter Rehse (talk) 12:58, 30 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
