• Weak delete While he has numerous short entries and interviews in places like Telestar, Public TV, and Closer Magazine, many of these are related sites (e.g.the network his show is on) and aside from interviews, the ones I have seen are very short. It is possible that there might be more of substance out there, but my French is lacking making searching tedious. One site seemed to say that he had been the national Kung Fu champion of France five times. If verifiable that might go a long way towards WP:Athlete. It said 5 fois champion de France de Kung-Fu, --Bejnar (talk) 19:03, 4 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - I see no authoritative references that confers notability.--Rpclod (talk) 02:53, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Doesn't appear to meet WP:GNG or any specific notability standards. I don't read French, but it's possible that there may be articles in French that show he meets WP:ENT. The martial arts claim needs reliable independent sources to support a claim of meeting WP:MANOTE. Jakejr (talk) 05:22, 8 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
