• Keep - pass notability guide. General points

Reliable sourcing is the most important factor. Assertions of notability must be sourced from somewhere other than the individual or organisation under discussion (see secondary sources); if referencing a tournament title, the organisation which ran the tournament would be the first stop; if the subject of an article is an author, the publisher or ISBN of the subject's work should be given. A single local newspaper article is probably not enough to assert notability, but national mention with some details or multiple local sources that "make a case" for notability. A lack of any sources after looking around is a warning sign that an article may not be notable enough for inclusion.Jjskarate (talk) 03:46, 19 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Has won several awards up to national level competitions making him notable.Mmaasia (talk) 08:27, 19 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Were the gold medals received from the Taekwondo World Cup or the Summer Olympics? Starczamora (talk) 16:14, 19 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Course not, but that's because those competitions don't allow kids and it conveniently leaves out national competitions as competitions that establish noteworthy-ness. - Mgm|^(talk) 08:50, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Notable perhaps in the local scene, but not in Wikipedia. Starczamora (talk) 16:14, 19 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Philippines has never won gold medal in Taekwondo World Cup and last summer olympic in Beijing, China the delegation go home empty handed. So, perhaphs we'll consided new breed of athetes and support all the way from local, national up to international competitions.Mmaasia (talk) 03:18, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
