A message from Tomehr
Hello,
Please review deletion for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drunken_boxing.
The topic was called a hoax and claimed to include insufficient or sub-par references. The topic is real and describes a discipline practiced by many individuals, including myself. As far as references, I'm not sure what is expected from an article about a kung fu style. I did include references to 2 books, 1 of them published by University of Hawaii Press. It is also noteworthy that many other articles of this sort exist for other kung fu styles, and I believe this article to be of higher quality than many of its counterparts.
Thank you for your times and please advise.

- @Tomehr: We expect an article not to get deleted via "article for deletion" nomination, and if it does, we expect people not to recreate the article without substantial improvement.
- Other kung fu articles haven't been deleted. We can't delete them speedily, and they are of a quality where no one has thought to nominate for an articles for deletion. Expectations will be lower for them.
- In otger words, even if I were able to review the deletion, I'd probably end up agreeing with Anthony Appleyard. I dream of horses (My talk page) (My edits) @ 16:08, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
- @Tomehr and I dream of horses: Do you want me to undelete it and AfD it? 23:11, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
