Does not seem to meet the general notability guidelines, or WP:CREATIVE. The sources I've found through searching and looking at the English, Arabic, and German wikis appear to mostly be commercial websites selling fonts (including his own), about the font rather than him, or dead and unarchived websites. The most promising site, the TDC's, seems to offer coverage for paying members. He seems to have won awards, but I can't find information about the notability of those awards.

Delete - I am not finding independent reliable sourcing on the web for this article. The improperly embedded links in the article are to sites selling the fonts, not a discussion of the fonts. The improperly embedded links to awards are dead. Fails WP:ARTIST. --WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 02:08, 18 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
