:::::*As {{user|kelapstick}} said in his vote below, "Insignificant coverage in reliable sources ≠ [[WP:GNG|passing the general notability guidelines]]." The source you mentioned above is a passing mention that does not establish notability. Likewise, the rest of the sources that have been used to fluff up this article provide insignificant coverage.

:::::::Two paragraphs is certainly not a passing mention. You can argue that it's still not enough even with the other reliable sources noted, but I think you'd be making a mistake. A merge might be a more reasonable position since there is an appropriate target. [[User:ChildofMidnight|ChildofMidnight]] ([[User talk:ChildofMidnight|talk]]) 22:11, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

::::::::The only part of the article that mentions Bullshido.net is: "a Web site called Bullshido.net, which exposes people who inflate their martial arts credentials." One phrase is not "significant coverage". One phrase is not "two paragraphs", so don't inflate the depth of coverage. A merge to [[Bullshido]] is not viable for preserving the content because Bullshido has the same problems as this article. Both [[Bullshido.net]] and [[Bullshido]] lack nontrivial coverage in reliable sources and both are composed of original research, so they both do not belong here.<p>''... not enough even with the other reliable sources.'' The other reliable sources are also passing mentions. [[User:Cunard|Cunard]] ([[User talk:Cunard|talk]]) 22:28, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

*'''Delete''' Lack of significant coverage in reliable sources. Insignificant coverage in reliable sources + Significant coverage in unreliable sources ≠ [[WP:GNG|passing the general notability guidelines]]. --[[User:Kelapstick|kelapstick]] ([[User talk:Kelapstick|talk]]) 22:35, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

*'''Keep''' The Rocky Mountain news and Charlotte Observer mentions should be sufficient for notability. [[User:Blowfish|Blowfish]] ([[User talk:Blowfish|talk]]) 23:05, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
