This article has only one reference and it's not independent. There are no sourced claims of notability. Obviously he's notable if someone can provide an independent source that shows he brought kung fu to America. Jakejr (talk) 06:12, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I have no expertise in martial arts, so I will refrain from making a firm recommendation at this time. That being said, a Google Books search shows what appears to me, at first glance, to be some possibly reliable book sources discussing him as a pioneer in teaching kung fu in the United States. Input by a topic expert would be welcomed. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 06:25, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
