Commando Krav Maga (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (restore | cache | AfD))

Article was put up for Speedy deletion again however the article was re-worked and any advert was ommitted. Many additional references were added and subject is worth notability in the world of martial arts. Commando Krav Maga is an independant system from the general Israeli fighting system of Krav Maga and should be listed separately instead of as a sub-heading.

  • Overturn and keep. I know nothing about the topic, but I see a well-written and sourced article. Since I wouldn't know it from anything, my reaction is that it looks notable, verifiable, and otherwise an example of an article worthwhile in Wikipedia.--Paul McDonald (talk) 20:54, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Close this discussion. The article was discussed and decided in an AfD in June 2008. It was recreated earlier today. While it was tagged for speedy-deletion, that speedy was declined. There is nothing for Deletion Review to review. Incidentally, the rewritten version is now up for a second AfD discussion.

West and many of the other articles have subsequently been restored. Upon further research,significant improvements, information and additional sources have been found and added to the article.

Question, the improved article says he "stayed on as a professor at the college" aftee his one year as a coach at Geneva College. Professor of what, and what business? (checking from the refs, I see he was a [physician, and VP of a local bank). What part of this career is notable? I'm going to use this article for some more general questions.
  1. is being the coach of one of the less important football teams for one year notable by itself? If it is, why isn't being a professor for one year at a small college notable by itself. WP is not a faculty directory, and ditto for sports.
  2. is being an important player on a small college team notable by itself? Is being the starplayer of the year on a school college team notable by itself. DGG (talk) 20:46, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
