Untitled[edit]

I noticed that there are no martial arts description of techniques in WikePedia. I think such pages could be very interesting. Biggest problem, I think, would be getting copyright free media. I've got videos from the web for a lot of the judo techniques. I have'em categorized as demonstrated, randori, and tournament, and fights. But I don't think I can share them with wikipedia.

Also, it be cool if such pages had a consistent layout. And have a wikipedian attempt at inter-relating the various branches of the martial arts.

Technique Description[edit]

Added exemplar videos. My view is that if one finds, for example, a better demonstrated video, then one should replace the current one with it. But I don't think it useful to load up the pages with external link videos.

I would have liked to have added a tournament video, but tipically Kata Guruma is done in one of it's drop variants. These variants, to me, make the technique different enough to warrant a separate treament, if not in a separate page as a different techinique, then maybe under a "variants" heading.

Note that we don't have control of external sites, so it would be much better to have videos on wikicommons. If anybody can, replace these external links, even if they're not as good as the copyrighted media it replaces, imho.

Technique History[edit]

Here I see, not just who inveted the technique, if known, but famous bouts. For example "Kimura" vs. "Helio" gave one of the Judo techniques the alias "Kimura" now taught in Brazilian JuJitsu.
