Authors of books are not given an automatic free pass over WP:BIO just because they exist — their ability to qualify for Wikipedia articles is determined by criteria at WP:AUTHOR. apparently the subject authored only one book (which is non-notable at least by WP standards) so it fails WP:AUTHOR. Search doesn't produce any substantial information about the lady so I would say fails to meet basic GNG as well. For what it's worth, no entry exists on Arabic WP so I assume the author is not even remotely notable.

I don't know why marked it as reviewed. Saqib (talk) 10:35, 18 April 2018 (UTC)


 * The answer to that is simple, and you may visit the article creator's talk page to see the message I left for them. I flagged the page as probably not indicating notability and politely invited them to demonstrate this person meets our criteria by improving the page, with a promise to return and nominate the article for deletion if they did not. That page is now on my monitoring list and I would have taken responsibility for returning and taking action if the page creator had not demonstrated notability. I saw no reason in this instance to PROD or AFD a page within a few hours of it being created, as this just demotivates and demoralises potentially good new editors. And we're not here to do that, are we? My NPP tagging and feedback gives them a supportive steer as to what they now need to do; it alerts them to potential deletion if they don't demonstrate notability, and it takes pressure off other NPP reviewers and those at AFD if the subject were indeed shown to be notable. As promised, I shall return again now that you've taken the initiative to AFD, and will give it my !vote for deletion in a few days if they have not  enhanced it. (Personally, I would like the NPP reviewers' Page Curation Tool to offer the option of leaving feedback not only to the article creator, but also to insert that text in the Talk Page of the article itself. Then it would have been easier for all with interests in that article to understand what concerns have already been raised and what future action might be taken. I hope this explains why I marked it a reviewed and templated it for notability. Regards from the UK, Nick Moyes (talk) 11:14, 18 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed response to my concerns. My bad I did not bothered to look the creators talk page otherwise I would have never wrote that note which I'm going to strike now. Have a good day! --Saqib (talk) 11:21, 18 April 2018 (UTC)
 * No worries. This is precisely why I say that we need comments left by New Page Reviewers for article creators to be optionally inserted into article talk pages. Many thanks for striking the question. Nick Moyes (talk) 11:26, 18 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment. I can find no sources or reviews on her book in English language press. However, being unable to search Arabic sources, I don't feel this qualifies me to vote delete. We need an Arabic speaking person, independent of nom, to check this. Ross-c (talk) 07:42, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
