Appears to fail WP:GNG. Breaks several records, but no significant or reliable coverage elsewhere. The claim that the subject is a "12 times US Presidential award holder" is unverifiable. —*Fehufangą (✉ Talk · ✎ Contribs) 22:58, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

- Delete Previous martial arts discussions have come to the conclusion that merely holding a Guinness world record is insufficient to show WP notability. Sources do not show that he meets WP:GNG. Several of them are passing mentions on articles about his students while the source marked as showing he set 29 Guinness records is about a student and doesn't mention the number of records he has set. In addition, the source marked as showing he has 12 U.S. Presidential awards makes no mention of him even having one. The website of Namya Press indicates that his books are likely vanity press which also fails to show WP notability. He fails to meet notability as an author (WP:NAUTHOR) or martial artist (WP:MANOTE). In other words, I can find no WP notability criteria that he meets. Papaursa (talk) 14:29, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
