 * Keep Coverage is in Arabic, and there are references in English as well! Bilal is the coach of the Palestinian national athletics team, and represented Palestine in many international tournaments. It meets the criteria of notability.--— Osama Eid  ( talk ) 19:53, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Based on WP:NATH, there is a clause that says: Coaches who have coached many notable athletes, including at least one non-relay Olympic medalist, World champion, or senior World Record holder during the time of the athletes' notable accomplishments.
 * Referring to the article, the Palestinian team, which was coached by Bilal, won the silver medal in the athletics delegation in Sharm El-Sheikh.
 * He also "was the official coach of the Palestine Olympic track and field team." — Osama Eid  ( talk ) 10:27, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep The article talks about a well-known sports figure in Palestine. He is the international coach of the Palestine Olympic Games and long track team. He won the gold medal in the Olympic Games tournaments in Sharm El-Sheikh, and he represents Palestine in international sports competitions.--— Osama Eid  ( talk ) 12:40, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
 * He is not well known. He has no proper coverage. There is no info on any medals. And he doesn't comply with the Wikipedia rules. With regards, Oleg Y.  (talk) 21:53, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
