With just 7 mentions on Google News she doesn't seem to pass WP:BIO. Also most of these mentions are at the single source (Times of Oman), so probably her notability is very local. Bbarmadillo (talk) 19:58, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep – There is significant coverage in Muscat Daily, Gulf News, and Times of Oman. The Gulf News article is mostly an interview, but I believe that there is sufficient coverage outside of the interview for it to qualify as a solid contributor for GNG. This is all far more internet coverage than what we normally expect from someone from Oman, let alone a woman. Happy Festivities! //  J 947  (c) 22:33, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep - I agree that WP:SIGCOV is met with features about her in Oman Magazine, Gulf News,Times of Oman and Oman Observer, as well as mentions in numerous other sources. I wouldn't say this is local, considering it is coverage of a whole country. Achaea (talk) 10:43, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep - meets WP:GNG, has significant coverage in several reliable sources. I added the Times of Oman and Oman Magazine citations to the article. Netherzone (talk) 16:30, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Notability is well founded by sustained coverage in a variety of national media over several years. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 23:21, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per J947 and Achaea. Coverage establishes GNG. Best, GPL93 (talk) 00:55, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep There is significant coverage and meets GNG. Ambrosiawater (talk) 03:10, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep, there is plenty of WP:SIGCOV. Mdaniels5757 (talk) 13:53, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
