Self-promotional page written by the subject. All the references and external links are to self-published blogs and web sites and vague mentions of the subject on obscure Arabic language web sites and blogs. The ar.Wiki article used as a reference has been deleted FOUR times and remains deleted. Fails WP:AUTHOR and WP:ACADEMIC. Kudpung (talk) 09:32, 27 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

yes, that `s right . one of Arabic wiki editors (Mr Obayd) send me an email to tell me that, sorry we can not accept your bibliography until 50 years after your death!(Ghada abdel moneim (talk) 14:02, 27 December 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Your user user page doesn't support your claim I'm afraid. Plus I can't spot a "Mr. Obayd" among other administrators. Rafy talk 02:17, 28 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I think the more appropriate question is how was she able to translate whole books from English as stated in the article. Rafy talk 02:19, 28 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  1. It seems not to be true that the arWP in fact does not not accept bios of living people? I note they have 9798 articles in their Category:Living People in Google translation, many of whom are contemporary cultural figures notable for Arab literature, (what was said seems rather like a polite excuse, such as my occasional comment to schoolchildren, "When you are famous someone will write a biography about you" which is not literally the full rule. I notethey do have a page equivalent to Notability(people), Google translation Like here, some of the rules seem contradictory,especially about whether they are to be interpreted as ANDs or as ORs, but their approach to writers is interesting--it does not seem that she has met it. It would seem that any writer they have debated and accepted would meet our notable criteria also. DGG ( talk ) 23:05, 27 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Being an "almost" native speaker of Arabic I can assure you that those pages don't seem that contradictory at all when read in Arabic. BTW the Arabic version article was deleted four times because of notability issues[1][2] and for being an non-encyclopedic autobiography[3]. Rafy talk 02:27, 28 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
