Completing the steps on an incomplete nomination. The original nominator indicated that the article was self-promotional. To that I would add concerns about the sourcing, and about notability. There are sources, but they appear to be references to the subject's work - videos of times when they were interviewed, for example, or websites where their work is published. Good as far as it goes, perhaps, but what we need to show that the subject is notable are references that discuss the subject themselves. An article about this person would work, an article by them would not. Admittedly, I'm a native English speaker, so my searches in Arabic may not be comprehensive - but I am as yet unable to come up with adequate sources.
