Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/John Ng
I did some research on the man, but am not expert in the field of martial arts, and the name John Ng is far too common to make a search at all easy. My thought is that as a Grand Master and teacher, he must certainly have the slew of awards and medals and commendations that will show his notability. Any experts out there that can help? Further, these searches on http://www.google.com/search?q=John+Ng,+Martial+Arts+master&hl=en&rls=com.microsoft:en-US&start=10&sa=N THIS Google and http://books.google.com/books?q=John%20Ng%2C%20Martial%20Arts%20master&hl=en&rls=com.microsoft:en-US&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wp Google books seem to show he easily passes  per "''has received a notable award or honor, or has been often nominated for them''", "''has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field''". He also seems to easily pass  per "''competed at the highest amateur level of a sport''" (when young) and "''competed at the fully professional level of a sport''" (when older), as "sports" as a term is not restricted to baseball, basketball, or football. He even sneaks past  per "''is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by their peers or successors''", and "''is known for originating a significant new concept, theory or technique''". Heck, as a Master and Teacher of the martal arts, he even slides in under , as "academic" is not confined to only books and the "hard" sciences. Yup. Needs an expert
