The result was No consensus - however, following a request, I have no problem with a re-nomination here, as I was very close to deleting this for lack of reliable sources.Black Kite 21:06, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Should be deleted per WP:ONEEVENT and WP:V. The only evidence of mainstream attention for this website is a handful of news articles which cites Samuel Browning's work in debunking David "Race" Bannon. This incident is already mentioned in the Bannon article. My attempts to merge/redirect have been reverted. This article should be deleted and then a protected redirect to David "Race" Bannon created in its place.
The rest of the "citations" are crap, either primary sources to Bullshido itself, or references to other self-published, unreliable websites.
Note: If this discussion is overwhelmed by non-policy-compliant "votes" from Bullshido cultists, I will take it to Deletion Review. It's time to stop allowing policy to be outvoted by small, unrepresentative cliques. *** Crotalus *** 15:34, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I have done much research about this website and have been unable to find any sufficient reliable sources about it. My searches included trawling through several pages of Google results, Google News Archive, Google Books, Google Scholar, and Yahoo!. If this site were truly notable as the above "keep" voters suggest, there should be sufficient sources about it. However, I have been unable to find any.
I am opposed to the merge suggested above by the wub (talk · contribs). There are absolutely no reliable sources that discuss Bullshido.net. Even the passing mentions from reliable sources (see #1) do not provide enough context to justify a stub.
I am also opposed to a redirect to David "Race" Bannon. A member of Bullshido.net may have posted information about Bannon, but that does not guarantee that the website should be mentioned in Bannon's article. Having searched through results (using the search term "Banno bullshido.net"), I have been unable to locate any reliable sources that indicate that Bullshido.net played major role in debunking Bannon's claims. The best source about Bullshido.net and Banno that I could find was this article from Rocky Mountain News. The article states: "This week, Browning, 38, posted on the Web site Bullshido.net an exhaustive dissection of Bannon's published claims, which he has investigated over the past two years." This passing mention that provides little context does not justify a redirect or a merge.
The above "keep" votes state that "Bullshido is quite a notable organization within the martial arts community" and "one of the most notable martial arts web sites", but I have been unable to uncover anything to substantiate their claims. Cunard (talk) 07:10, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
