Unsourced non notable martial arts related dictionary definition, which does not justify a self-standing article, as per WP:NOTDIC Samuraiantiqueworld (talk) 01:23, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Eight months as an unreferenced definition is long enough. This seems to be just the Japanese word for "strategy". Tigerboy1966 (talk) 01:31, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete:I concur, no evidence of this as a notable activity/practice after web search. Better than some of these but still fails WP:GNG. Babakathy (talk) 09:03, 16 January 2012 (UTC):Note: This debate has been included in the list of Martial arts-related deletion discussions. Heihou[reply]

Weak keepchanged !vote, see below Searching Googlebooks under "heiho" (the more common romanisation) gives quite a few results; I've even encountered this term myself a number of times. There's an article to be written here; I'll have a crack at it. Yunshui 雲水 10:58, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Turns out it's also a term for Japanese military auxiliaries, which is going to need a whole separate article. Hey ho... Yunshui 雲水 11:11, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- You know what? I've changed my mind on this one as well. Let's just delete and redirect to Military strategy. As a term, "heiho" is really only interesting for the "heiho is heiho" pun and for being Miyamoto Musashi's preferred term for "strategy" in the Go rin no sho. It doesn't merit an article, per WP:NOTDIC. The Japanese auxiliaries can be dealt with under Military history of Japan, if needs be. Yunshui 雲水 14:06, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete It just appears to be a dictionary term. I can't see any content worth redirecting. Papaursa (talk) 01:57, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
