Delete as non-notable - unlike the reasons in the nom, this is a valid ground for deletion. 16:52, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

Keep, WP:BASIC/WP:GNG notability appears supported by sources in the article, e.g. per Yemeni American News (in the article) (translated with Google Translate) in an article about him titled "Abdul-Jabbar Nouman and Symphony of Color", he was "born in 1949. He studied art. He graduated from Leonardo College in Cairo in 1973." Per the Almawqea Post (described as a private news website by the Committee to Protect Journalists) in a 2019 obituary, (also translated), "The late is considered one of the most prominent plastic artists in his country [...] Abdel-Jabbar Ahmed Abdel-Wahhab Noman was born in the Dhahban area near the city of Taiz, where he began his studies and then completed it in Aden, and traveled to Cairo, where he joined the Italian Art Institute and obtained a bachelor’s degree from it with distinction with honors in 1973..." and more information about his career, including "among his most prominent works is a mural inaugurated by the United Nations on war and peace". Another obit (Al-Arabi?) refers to him (translated) as "not just an amateur artist, but was one of the most important founders of the Yemeni plastic art movement". Also, the birth year does not quite match, but the work of Abdel Jabar Numan of Yemen, b. 1946, is held in the permanent collection of the Jordan National Gallery of Fine Arts.
