*'''Comment then vote''' It is expected, even hoped, that articles are developed while under AfD and if the amount of references and details can go up they can also go down. I have no issue with the changes of the article since they are explained in the edit summary and we can always look at older versions but I must say in this case the before and after versions of the article are so different it is shocking. It feels gutted and I can not help but think it would be better to discuss the shortcomings here than at the editing level. Just a point.[[User:PRehse|Peter Rehse]] ([[User talk:PRehse|talk]]) 18:43, 2 July 2015 (UTC) |

:::PREHSE, Gutting is something that NS36 can do well. I am quite sure he can gut quality articles with what appears to be sound logic. I don't even bother arguing with him. It simply takes too long and is too time consuming. He is a big reason as to why I don't even bother making large articles. If it can be gutted that quick after a hours of research. It was frustrating for me before. I simply don't even bother. I leave the articles at the stub level and allow other wikipedians do build them up.

::::::*First, comment on the article, not the editors. Since you want to talk about what people are or are not good at, let's talk about you're good at. You're good at ignoring the policy about reliable sources and spamming the articles with non-RS trash. You're also very good at ignoring the rules of grammar, especially with all your "he would..." entries. You're also pretty skilled at failing to actually read sources and either present information incorrectly or out of context. Perhaps if you spent a couple of hours actually reading the RS policy, instead of looking at self-published sources and blogs, you'd find that less of your edits fail to meet the standards '''required''' by Wikipedia. In short, if you publish poorly sourced material, it'll probably be viewed that way.[[User:Niteshift36|Niteshift36]] ([[User talk:Niteshift36|talk]]) 16:55, 3 July 2015 (UTC) |

::*Even better to discuss it at the article talk page. That said, unreliable sources are unreliable sources, regardless of how long they get discussed. Sources being misrepresented are still misrepresented. We could spend a lot of time discussing it....but the author decided to bring it here. He started the 7 day time clock. Since uninvolved editors are going to drop in an look at it, I think we should be removing non-RS's and trivial filler that is obscuring the notability issue. Digging up a passing mention from a RS that says the subject presented awards at a college awards banquet obfuscates the issue if an editor just glances at the source and doesn't look at the context.

Not commenting on notability of article. I wanted other opinions to see if subject is considered to be notable. CrazyAces489 (talk) 04:57, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Martial arts-related deletion discussions.
- Delete - Even from not much effort, you can see he hasn't gotten considerably good third-party coverage and all my searches (News, Books, highbeam and thefreelibrary) found none of this aside from two links from his time as a cop. I'm open to drafting/userfying if wished but I'm not seeing any good notability for any of his occupations. SwisterTwister talk 05:02, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- keep I have searched all three links and know that he is well known as a martial artist, professor, and nypd sgt. CrazyAces489 (talk) 05:08, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- Would you clarify why you are saying keep when you nominated the article? If he is well known then, what about the good coverage that he needs to be considered notable? SwisterTwister talk 05:38, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- On the cover of 2 magazines and multiple articles [1] and a legend within the NYPD. [2] CrazyAces489 (talk) 20:19, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- Except that the source doesn't even use the word legend, let alone call him one. The source you had that said it was some guys blog. And no, the passing mention in that NY Times article isn't significant coverage. Niteshift36 (talk) 21:52, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2015 July 1. —cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 05:14, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- Comment. I'll go through this one later, but a number of those sources will end up removed. We can't use a persons own self-published books as the major basis for the article. Niteshift36 (talk) 18:43, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
*Delete. After non-RS and empty fluff is removed, we have a retired cop, now teaching at a college that doesn't pass WP:NACADEMICS. Sounds like a great guy, but not a notable one.
- Comment Albert Gotay appeared on the cover of Official Karate in 1970 and 1971. [3] He also appeared in articles of Official Karate Magazine 9 times between 1973 and 1974. [4]

- A picture isn't significant coverage. And "appearing" in articles really isn't either, especially when it's merely a passing mention, like some of the material you tried to include. We have to examine the significance. If your local newspaper mentions a high school football player getting a scholarship to play at a Division 3 school, he didn't magically become notable. And please stop using reference links. Just post the link, not in a ref format. Your footnotes interrupt the rest of the discussion. Niteshift36 (talk) 13:27, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

- First, comment on the article, not the editors. Since you want to talk about what people are or are not good at, let's talk about you're good at. You're good at ignoring the policy about reliable sources and spamming the articles with non-RS trash. You're also very good at ignoring the rules of grammar, especially with all your "he would..." entries. You're also pretty skilled at failing to actually read sources and either present information incorrectly or out of context.

- Even better to discuss it at the article talk page. That said, unreliable sources are unreliable sources, regardless of how long they get discussed. Sources being misrepresented are still misrepresented. We could spend a lot of time discussing it....but the author decided to bring it here. He started the 7 day time clock.

Digging up a passing mention from a RS that says the subject presented awards at a college awards banquet obfuscates the issue if an editor just glances at the source and doesn't look at the context.
