Does this satisfy WP:GNG?[edit]

Only this external link is given as reference for this article. It is to a wiki site called Sensei's Library. I'm not sure if this one external link is reliable enough under the "Wikipedia's General Notability Guidelines" establish a stand-alone article for this one particular topic. "Self-published sources (online or paper)" does say that user-generated content may be used as a reliable sources if "with the exception of material on such sites that is labeled as originating from credentialed members of the sites' editorial staff, rather than users." It also says "Self-published material may sometimes be acceptable when its author is an established expert whose work in the relevant field has been published by reliable third-party publications." I'm not sure if either of those two conditions are satisfied in this particular case. Moreover, the "Sensei's Library" wiki may not even be acceptable for use as an external link because it seems to fall under Nos. 1, 11, 12, of WP:ELNO. I think this subject matter probably does have some merit, but not as a stand alone article. There is a much more fully developed article on the same subject matter on Japanese's Wikipedia. Perhaps some of those sources can be used here? If the "Sensei's Library" is unacceptable as a reliable source, it will have to be removed: That means the article will have nothing at all as source which puts it at risk of being nominated for deletion, right? Maybe this should be made into a stub per WP:STUBIFY or merged into something else? I am interested in hearing what other's have to say.
