Welcome and thank you for the submission.
The formatting is perfect. I'm just dropping the martial arts tag because the term isn't exclusive to that domain.
For future submissions, please try to include references (e.g. dictionaries, web pages) in the box above. It helps the editors determine whether the term is worth adding.

This is my first addition, so apologies if the formatting is wrong! 無段 and 無段者 are both common words in martial arts to refer to people who have not yet attained 初段. While 無段者 refers to a person (as is the direct antonym of 有段者), 無段 by itself refers to the "lack of rank", e.g. Person A is 2段, Person B is 初段, Person C is 無段.
