No indication the subject passes the general notability guidelines or the notability guidelines for authors. Her book was published by what seems to be a vanity publisher [1]. All of the "sources" listed on her ar.wiki page [2] are links to landing pages, not any actual articles. The only other reference I could find is a bio page on The Karta Arabic Fiction Awards [3]. There is no indication she has won or that it is a significant/notable award if she had. Jbh ^Talk 15:44, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Mmm. Thanks. I'll stand & watch, whilst conceding that you're doing the right thing. --Tagishsimon (talk) 00:27, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

delete looks to be mere PROMO. No RS on page. None found in my searches on her name. Perhaps it's WP:TOOSOON.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:23, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
